It' s hard to help but see
God played a trick on me
Walking up the street to the diner to eat
Expecting nothing but a five dollar feast
She took me by surprise
That pair of bright blue eyes
I caught her glance, I smiled, we said hi
Both headed inside
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
I flexed, I smoothed my hair
I watched her sitting there
Asked her if she' d mind if I sat down beside
She said she didn' t, and we talked until nine
And then we said, " good night
Until tomorrow night"
I laid down staring at the ceiling
Life before my eyes
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
In this surreality
(You can taste and touch and breathe)
Now it' s my reality
And so one story ends
But another one begins...
I laid down staring at the ceiling
Life before my eyes
With shooting stars colliding
With planets all aligning
There' s not much that can be done
You wouldn' t dare deny it
And if you try to fight it
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
It' s like staring down the sun
