The gift is hard to take
And it's easy just to watch it break
Time for another spin
And watch it wash away again
Don't worry where you are
You're a shooting star
And if somebody follows you
You know you'll last a little longer
Scratch your name on a stone
And leave it there in the road
And if it gets picked up
Then you're in luck
But it'll probably be left alone
Don't worry where you are
You're a shooting star
And if somebody follows you
You know you'll last a little longer
The sharks are going to get you
If you splash around like that
And I will never forget you
If you splash around like that
Don't worry where you are
You're a shooting star
And if somebody follows you
You know you'll last a little longer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
