Shooting Star (流星) - Harry Chapin[00:00:00]
He was crazy of course[00:00:13]
From the first she must have known it[00:00:16]
But still she went on with him[00:00:20]
And she never once had shown it[00:00:23]
And she took him off the street[00:00:27]
And she dried his tears of grieving[00:00:30]
She listened to his visions[00:00:34]
She believed in his believe-ins[00:00:37]
Oh he was the sun burning bright and brittle[00:00:42]
And she was the moon shining back his light a little[00:00:47]
He was a shooting star[00:00:53]
She was softer and more slowly[00:00:55]
He could not make things possible[00:00:58]
But she could make them holy[00:01:01]
Holy[00:01:06]
He was dancing to some music[00:01:13]
No one else had ever heard[00:01:16]
He'd speak in unknown languages[00:01:20]
She would translate every word[00:01:23]
And then when the world was laughing[00:01:26]
At his castles in the sky[00:01:29]
She'd hold him in her body[00:01:33]
Till he once again could fly[00:01:36]
Oh he was the sun burning bright and brittle[00:01:41]
And she was the moon shining back his light a little[00:01:46]
He was a shooting star[00:01:51]
She was softer and more slowly[00:01:54]
He could not make things possible[00:01:57]
But she could make them holy[00:02:00]
Holy[00:02:05]
Well she gave him a daughter[00:02:12]
And she gave him a son[00:02:15]
She was a mother and a wife [00:02:18]
And a lover when the day was done[00:02:21]
He was too far gone for giving love[00:02:24]
What he offered in it's stead[00:02:27]
Was the knowledge she was the only thing[00:02:30]
That was not in his head[00:02:34]
He took off East one morning[00:02:51]
Towards the rising sun's red glow[00:02:54]
She knew he was going nowhere[00:02:57]
But of course she let him go[00:03:00]
And as she stood and watched him dwindle[00:03:03]
Much too empty to be sad[00:03:06]
He reappeared beside her saying [00:03:10]
"You're all I've ever had"[00:03:13]
Oh he was the sun burning bright and brittle[00:03:19]
And she was the moon shining back his light a little[00:03:24]
He was a shooting star[00:03:30]
She was softer and more slowly[00:03:33]
He could not make things possible[00:03:36]
But she could make them holy[00:03:38]
Holy[00:03:45]
