Another Falling Star Songtext
von Peter Cincotti

It was high July
Another summer on the boardwalk
His skin was brown as a rosary bead
The year before, he was everybody′s hero
But he was losing ground and gaining speed
It could've been a girl
Or just one good hand of poker
It could′ve turned the whole damn thing around
But that July, something was lost
That never did get found

He was a sun that was waiting to rise
He had the look of a king in his eyes
And everything, everything was possible
And now he just laughs and says, "What the hell"
And clings to the secret that he'll never tell
But I wish I knew what kind of scar
Can turn a sun into just another falling star


Now I get this déjà vu
And I don't really like it
But this friend of mine can′t get it in his brain
He′s a diamond lost inside the stone
He's a player born to win the game
But he′s gonna blow it all
The brass rings in his finger
And I gotta watch as he throws it away
He's like a song that′s rare and right
And no one's gonna play

He is a sun that is waiting to rise
He′s got the look of a king in his eyes
And everything, everything is possible
And now he just laughs and says, "What the hell"
And clings to the secret that he'll never tell
But I wish I knew what kind of scar
Can turn a sun into just another falling star
Oh, just another falling star

Can someone explain it? 'Cause I don′t know why
Some people live like they′re waiting to die
And I wish I knew what kind of scar
Can turn a sun into just another falling star
Oh, just another falling star
