Shooting Star Lyrics

Artist: Poison (Buy Poison CDs)
Album: Hollyweird

a small town girl with big time dreams

but nothing's ever as it seems

a mother waves her girl goodbye

then slowly hangs her head and cries

hollywood hills and the big city lights

outside her window they burn bright

someday the world will praise her fame

they'll know her face they'll shout her name

pre-chorus

they'll shout it real load

she'll make her mama real proud

she'll stand about the crowd

Chorus

i am someone

look what i've done

stare into the sun

i am a shooting star

i am something

i am someone

look what i have done

i am a shooting star

she looks down at the stars lying on the streets

says to herself "that will be me"

a big time dream a small town mind

searching for a break she may never find

streets of gold they turned to gray

just one more chance just one more day

someday that world will know this face

she swears they'll never fall from grace

they'll shout it real loud

she'll make her mama real proud

she'll stand about the crowd

and shout

chorus (solo)

she stand out on the streets in the pouring rain

strangers walk by they don't know her name

as the silver screen slowly fades to black

she'll never give in she can never go back

chorus

someday you'll see me

don't you need me

everybody will believe me

i am a shooting star

i will stand strong

i will hold on

it's not my last song

i am a shooting star
