This is.... The story of a girl,
who pretends that airplanes
in the night sky
are like shooting stars...

In my head, I see her in front of me,
[thinking] I am, I am, I am,
the luckiest...

But her boyfriend?Β Β He don't know. Anything.
About her.

...And I don't believe that anybody
feels the way I do
about you now..

And I gotta be honest! I think you know,
I'm covered in lies, and that's ok...

Cause when you're dreamin with a broken heart,
The wakin up- thats the hardest part..

If you'd just realize what I just realized then we'd be
perfect for each other and we'd never have to wonder
if airplanes in the night sky
are like shooting stars.
