Shooting Star
Discotronic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Party people
The time has come
I wanna see you move to this ___
Move
I give to you the shooting star
Where were you to hold my hand?
Do the things that we had planned?
Guess, I need you by my side
When things go crazy
I just need to know you care
Guaranteed that you′ll be there
When I wake up in the night
Will you be my guiding light?
I don't care how far
I′ll take a plane tonight (Come on!)
Just tell me where you are
And everything's gonna be alright (What time?)
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You're gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You′re gonna see me fly! (Wind it up! Ahh yea!)
Across the midnight sky (Here it comes!)
(Are you ready?)
(This is Discotronic!)
(Come on!)
(This is Disco-tronic)
(This is Disco-tronic)
(This is Disco...)
(This is Disco...)
(This is Disco...)
(This is Disco...)
(This is Disco-tronic)
(Pick it up!)
(Go!)
(Work this feet!)
(Here it comes!)
(Ahh yeah!)
(This is Discotronic)
(Turning up the heat)
(Raving quadrophonic)
(Moving up the beat)
(Gonna wind it up)
(Wherever you are)
(As Discotronic presents:)
(The Shooting Star)
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You′re gonna see me fly (Come on!)
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You're gonna see me fly! (Bring the beat back!)
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You′re gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Wherever you are
You're gonna see me fly!
(This is Discotronic!)




Across the midnight sky
(This is Discotronic!)
