I watch you from across the room
I know exactly where you stand
I've memorized the way you speak
The way you move your hand
You don't look back, you never do
I'm just a shadow in your light
You are my falling star, burning bright
Always moving, out of reach and out of sight
I want you, but I'll never have the chance
It's just a long-distance, one-way glance
Yeah, you're my falling star, breaking me apart
To be the only one with this in my heart
I wrote your name and rubbed it out
I've practiced things I'll never say
It's a quiet kind of heavy pain
That follows me through every day
You're not mine, and you'll never be
There is no us, there's only you
You are my falling star, burning bright
Always moving, out of reach and out of sight
I want you, but I'll never have the chance
It's just a long-distance, one-way glance
Yeah, you're my falling star, breaking me apart
To be the only one with this in my heart
I don't want a miracle
I don't expect a sign
I just live with the fact
That you'll never be mine
My falling star...
You'll never be mine
