Shooting Stars Lyrics


It's a full moon, bright as can be
Enough for the whole world to see
And the wind's danced with clouds
And stars shining so nakedly
I said you're something special
You're blessed too 'n' you guide me
You protect me from this cold world
When you hold me and don't let go of me
I said your wings are white, they're very wide
That's why you fly, yeah, yeah
Baby, angel girl with this world we're in
You're my cherubin, yeah, yeah
It's amazing
I can't believe this
So like a dream
The ocean tugs with God's galaxy
It's so beautiful when twilight arrives
As I sail 'n' move with the tides

This is what I see when he speaks to me
I said you're something special
You're blessed too 'n' you guide me
You protect me from this cold world
When you hold me and don't let go of me
I said your wings are white they're very wide
That's why you fly, yeah, yeah
Baby, angel girl with this world we're in
You're my cherubin, yeah, yeah
I know the phrase 'far-fetched' could never seem this far
But did I ever tell you you're my shooting star?
Warmer than a house faster than your car
Did I ever tell you you're my shooting star
It's a cold night but you would never know
And there are more blues than any I could ever see
It's like a melody, every breath is heavenly
A deep, deep sea, I'm lost completely when he speaks to me
Said you're something, you're special
You're blessed too, you guide me
You protect me from this cold world
When you hold me and don't let go of me
I said your wings are white, they're very wide
That's why you fly, yeah, yeah
Baby, angel girl with this world we're in
You're my cherubin, yeah, yeah
Said you're something special
You blessed too, you guide me
You protect me from this cold world
Oh you hold me and won't let go of me
I said your wings are white, they're very wide
That's why you fly yeah, yeah
Baby, angel girl with this world we're in
You're my cherubin, yeah, yeah
Said you're something special
You're blessed too 'n' you guide me
You protect me from this cold world
When you hold me and won't let go of me
I said your wings are white, they're very wide
That's why you fly, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, angel girl with this world we're in
You're my cherubin, yeah, yeah
Hey, look out the window it's raining
Rain, rain, rain, rain go away
Would you mind comin' back another day?
Rain, rain, rain, rain go away
Would you mind comin' back another day?
Rain, rain, rain, rain go away
Would you mind comin' back another day?
Rain, rain, rain, rain go away
Would you mind comin' back another day?

Kelis Rogers-Jones (born Kelis Rogers on August 21, 1979), is known simply by her first name Kelis (pronounced Kuh-lees). Her name is an amalgamation of her parents' first names, her black father Kenneth and Chinese-Puerto Rican mother Eveliss. Growing up in Middle Class Harlem, New York Kelis' childhood was not a deprived one. But she was not without problems, after her parents realised they could not cope with her unruly behaviour (Kelis shaved all her hair off at age 13, soon afterwards dyeing the regrowth the colors of the rainbow), Kelis moved out of the family home, continuing her private education.

After a short spell working as a model, 5'10" Kelis began appearing on songs by Neptunes produced rappers such as 'Got Your Money' by the late rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard. Soon afterwards, she released her debut album, Kaleidoscope in 1999 of which the first single was 'Caught Out There,' a song based on the time she caught her boyfriend cheating on her, and she beat him. The video feautures Kelis leading a pack of angry women down the street screaming 'I hate you so much right now!'. The album was released in USA, Europe and Asia, but did not find much audience in the USA. Not a great success, it only sold 249,000 copies to date.

After finding her largest audience in Europe, Kelis released her second album titled Wanderland (2001) in Europe only, which like her first album did not fare well. It only sold 80,000 copies and was entirely produced by The Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) again, similarly to her debut. Only one single was released 'Young Fresh N New'.

In 2003 Kelis finally found fame in her country with the single 'Milkshake,' which was a massive success in Europe, Asia and USA, and she began dating rapper Nas (born Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones). The single was from the album 'Tasty' which did not feature the Neptunes as heavily as her previous albums. Singles included the popular Dallas Austin produced 'Trick Me' and 'Millionaire', a collaboration with OutKast's Andre 3000. 'In Public's duet with Nas was the fourth single from the album, becoming a top twenty hit in the U.K. without a video.

In 2006, Kelis presented a new album to her fans, entitled Kelis Was Here, which was originally to be called 'The Puppeteer' which was released on 22 August but was due Fall 2005. No Neptunes tracks appeared on this album, but Kelis used other producers such as Max Martin, will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas) and Raphael Saadiq. Singles are the huge 'Bossy', 'Blindfold Me', and 'Lil Star'. Kelis wrote more of the material on this album than she did for Tasty, and carries off the sci-fi, electronica sounds so often considered Neptunes material without them. This is most evident on the brilliant 'Trilogy'. Kelis has said she wants to make her mark with this album, as it will be the last 'album like this' she will make.

In October 2007, Kelis was dumped by Jive Records, for poor sales of Kelis Was Here but a new album is in the pipeline. The Hits - a greatest hits collection - was released in March 2008, including tracks where she was a featured artist, eg, Got Your Money by Ol' Dirty Bastard , N.E.R.D's Truth or Dare, and Richard X's Finest Dreams.

Kelis is currently signed to Interscope records and released in 2010 an album entitled Flesh Tone, the first single from which was the David Guetta-produced Acapella.

Songfacts reports that 'Distance', the first single from Kelis’ sixth studio album received its first play during the June 30, 2012 show of The Beatnik Mix on London's Reprezent 107.3FM.

In the beginning of 2010, Kelis received a letter by animal rights organization PETA, in which she was informed about the cruelty that comes along with the production of fur coats. In her Myspace blog, she mocked PETA and stated that she would go on wearing fur, referencing several fur coats she had made from her pet dogs.
