LYRICS:

Verse1
D A C G
‘Saw a shooting star the other night
Made a wish without second thought
Wished you were by my side

As I watched the cloudless sky
‘Saw a picture of your face
Looking at me from above

At that moment I realised
That you touched me deep inside
And you’re always on my mind


Chorus
Em C G D (Em)
My heart falls like a meteorite
That’s how you make me feel tonight
I burn and hurtle to the ground
Yet I know that I’m alright

Em C G D (C)
You make me feel like I’m a child
Not a clue of what to do
Yet everything’s alright
When you’re by my side.

C D (G)
When you’re by my side.


Verse2
As I watched the city sky
Through the dusty window glass
I wondered if you’re there

I saw no moon, no stars, no light
With which to draw your face
Only fading clouds of grey

As I started losing hope
Like a flash of lightning bolt
A star shot through the dark


Verse3

Though you’re right here next to me
I can’t believe it’s real
It all feels like a dream

Maybe that’s what makes it great
And I hope I never wake
From this moment here with you

Hold my hand and walk with me
Let’s watch for shooting stars
And wish this never ends
 
I really enjoyed that! very nice recording. As a drummer, I really loved the sound you got from the cajon too.
