Shooting Star #2 Songtext
von Bob Dylan

Seen a shootin′ star tonight
And I thought of you
You're tryin′ to break into another world
The world I never knew

I always kinda wondered
If you ever made it through
Seen a shootin' star tonight
And I thought of you

Seen a shootin' star tonight
And I thought of me
If I was still the same
If I ever became what you wanted me to be

Did I miss the mark, overstep the line?
That only you could see?
Seen a shootin′ star tonight
And I thought of me


Listen to the engine, listen for the bell
As the last fire-truck from hell
Goes rollin′ by
All good people are prayin'

It′s the last temptation
The last account
Last time you might hear
The sermon on the mount
Last radio's playin′

Seen a shootin' star tonight
Slipped away
Tomorrow will be
Another day

Guess it′s too late to say the things to you
That you needed to hear me say
Seen a shootin' star tonight
Slip away
