Shooting star,
You're so bright and pretty.
You dance across the sky in a hurry.
Where are you going, little star?

Shooting star,
You mesmerize me.
Your eyes shine and glimmer like sun on the water.
Does it bother you when I stare?

Shooting star,
Your lips taste like comets.
Is it because you're always running?
I like the taste of space dust.

Shooting star,
You never look anyone in the eyes.
Maybe you think that you'll blind them if you do.
Are you afraid of people?

Shooting star,
You have so much life to live.
Why are you leaving so soon?
Why do you look so sad, little star?

Shooting star,
Your laugh sounds like the ocean waves.
Is always makes me feel calm.
Why don't you laugh anymore?

Shooting star,
You don't look very bright anymore.
Are you okay little starlight?
Are you still there?
Goodbye shooting star.
