Wishing on a Shooting Star

I picked you up just as the sun dipped low,
Two cups of coffee and a long backroad,
Windows up, heater on, we were goin’ nowhere fast,
Didn’t know I’d wanna make it last.

We found a spot where the sky burned bright,
Killed the engine, let it fade to quiet,
I struck a match, said “I got this, don’t you worry ‘bout a thing,”
Laid that blanket ‘cross you

You laughed and said, “ wow you’re prepared for everything,”
That’s when you called me your Boy Scout.

Under that shooting star,
Sitting by that fire in the dark,
You wrapped up in that blanket tight,
I swear that’s when it felt so right.
Didn’t know love could start that fast,
In a moment I wished would last,
Just a spark in the cold night air,
But I was already halfway there.

You warm your hands on that cup of coffee,
Talkin’ ‘bout next week like it’s callin’ your name,
‘Bout that Africa trip and the dreams you’re chasin’,
I just sat there fallin’ for you

You get that smile when you can’t sit still,
That little jump like your heart just spills,
Like the world’s too good to just stand still,
And I fall for you 

Under that shooting star,
Sitting by that fire in the dark,
You wrapped up in that blanket tight,
I swear that’s when it felt so right.
Didn’t know love could start that fast,
In a moment I wished would last,
Just a spark in the cold night air,
But I was already halfway there.

First shooting star, and your laugh filled the air,
Hands in mine, like we hadn’t a care,
That night by the fire, I didn’t need to guess,
I was already falling, and I knew it then.

Now every time I see a shooting star,
I go back to where we are,
Firelight and your eyes on mine,
That’s where love crossed that line.
Didn’t have to wonder or pretend,
I knew right there how I wanted this to end,
That night made it all so clear… 
I was yours, and I wanted you to be mine
