MUNA Shooting Star Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I heard there’s a few different people you’re talking to
Wonder if you lose track of them some of the time
I’m laughing ’cause I know I only just met you
But you’re already spanning skylines inside my mind
[Chorus]
And tonight when I closed the door, I wanted to turn back
But when I see a shooting star, I stay out of its path
And that’s what you are, you’re so bright
You burn my eyes and you move too fast
So I say “Goodnight, make it home” like I’m making a wish
On you, from afar
You, my shooting star
[Verse 2]
I know what you wanted because I wanted it too
To be in your light, consumed and erased
But your light doesn’t stay, you take it away too soon
Then leave me hung over the moon stranded in space
[Chorus]
So even though tonight when I closed the door I wanted to turn back
I know when I see a shooting star to stay out of its path
And that’s what you are, you’re so bright
You burn my eyes and you move too fast
So I say “Goodnight, make it home” like I’m making a wish
On you, from afar
You, my shooting
[Outro]
Star, light
Star, bright
The only star I see tonight
I wish I may, and I think I might regret this either way
If I write you in my heart or keep you in the dark
So I’ll love you from afar
You, my shooting star
