about

Very infectious, danceable song with a Middle Eastern sound to it. One of Up in the Air's most popular live songs. Usually get folks moving and dancing in circles when this song gets going.

lyrics

Falling Star
by John Beccia

Staring at the sky on an autumn’s night
Seeing all the stars, how they seem so bright
When you see the sight of a falling star
Feeling kind of small with the way things are
Feeling kind of small and yet so complete, feeling kind of warm when our gazes meet
You may be content with the way things are
When you see the sight of a fal..........ing star.....fal.....................ling star

Here I am again trying to make some sense
Tryin’ to live my life in the present tense
Searchin’ for the sight of a falling star
Feeling kind of lost in the way things are
Feeling kind of lost and yet so discreet, tryin’ not to start what I can’t complete
We are not complete when we are apart
Till you see the sight of a fal..........ing star.....fal.........................ling star

When you were a child, everything seemed long
Now that we are grown how it moves along
You will miss the sight of the falling star
If you never look from the place you are
Blinking of an eye looking back at you, blinking of an eye and your life is through
When your life is through you’ll see what you are
When you see the sight of a fal..........ing star.....fal.....................ling star
