Shooting Star

Today I am, Tomorrow I am not What am I, the world wonders Just like a movie, my story is cut Gone, they think I am, where is he?, they ponder Particles of life, particles of death Cling all around me, parasites! As I drift through the waves of life Today I am here, Tomorrow I am there A rare spectacle, the world predicts my arrival As glorious as I come, death seems to be my rival Friends I make not, life too short for that Each time I fall in love, my heart is pierced with a dart Cupids dart, I want But today I am, tomorrow I am not. Laws of physics broken, just like pieces of my heart Fast I move through life, with particles all round me Am just a SHOOTING STAR I am not here to stay Because Today I am, Tomorrow I am not.
