I saw a star

Falling

Like an old

Hollywood actress

A neon sign

With just one letter showing

A burned out light

At my feet

I took a wish

I wished on that jewel

From the sky

I wished on the moon

Haunting the trees

A target too big for the sky

I wanted it so bad

I was wishing on a prayer

But it kept right on dodging

A riderless horse

From the left to the right

Straight to the eye

Yet changing direction

There within reach

And then out of sight

I'd waited too long

Watched for that pot to boil

Waited too long for the whistle

I wanted it so bad

I was wishing on a prayer

But it kept right on dodging

A riderless horse

From the left to the right

Straight to the eye

Yet changing direction

There within reach

And then out of sight

I saw a star

Falling

Like an old

Hollywood actress

A neon sign

With just one letter showing

A burned out light

At my feet

I took a wish

I wished on that jewel

From the sky

I saw a star

Falling
