Shooting Stars Lyrics - Elysian Fields

I've lost you once again 

But I can't lose heart 

To watch this dream descend 

Just tears me apart 

You close your eyes 

And you can't hear me 

Fast asleep in your bed of misery 

Baby get out of bed 

Don't close your eyes my sleepy head 

Don't close your eyes my sleepy head 

Look at all the shooting stars 

Billions of shooting stars 

Streak the sky 

Dazzling diamond light 

You're lost to me 

And you can't break free 

Wrapped in the gloom of ancient history 

Baby get out of bed 

Don't close your eyes my sleepy head 

Don't close your eyes my sleepy head 

Look at all the shooting stars 

Billions of shooting stars 

Streak the sky 

Dazzling diamond light 

Watch the night 

Gather shooting stars 

Baby throw off that cloud 

The bed of thorns that lay you down 

Quick like silver out of bounds 

Look at all the shooting stars 

Some of them could be ours 

Stream the sky 

Dazzling diamond light 

Wish I might 

On shimmering shooting stars 

Glimmering shooting stars 

Dimming 

Shooting stars
