Chasin' down these meteors and comets |
| [00:19.71] |
(chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em down) |
| [00:20.52] |
Called dreams, in the sky of life |
| [00:22.74] |
(chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em down |
| [00:24.33] |
chasin' 'em, chasin' 'em) There certain hot spots |
| [00:29.64] |
Where these meteors and stars have tendency to fall |
