Owl City - Shooting Star lyrics

[Intro] Close your tired eyes, relax and then Count from 1 to 10 and open them All these heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down, but not this time [Verse 1] Way up in the air, you're finally free And you can stay up there, right next to me All this gravity will try to pull you down, but not this time [Chorus] When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out Then it's time for you to shine Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light Because it's time for you to shine Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are tonight Woah, woah, woah Brighter than a shooting star Shine no matter where you are, tonight [Verse 2] Gaze into my eyes, when the fire starts And fan the flame so hot, it melt our hearts All the pouring rain, will try to put it out, but not this time Let your colors burn, and brightly burst Into a million sparks, but all dispersed And illuminate a world that'll try to bring you down, but not this time [Chorus] [Verse 3] A thousand heartbeats beating time And makes this dark planet come alive So when the lights flicker out tonight, you got to shine [Chorus]
