Here's a song I wrote about some time I spent at St. Augustine Beach, FL.  At night we walked out on the beach and watched a pretty incredible meteorite shower (I saw at least 20 each night).  

Lyrics:

Took a walk down to the ocean
Through the tall grass
I felt my world motion
As the waves crashed
I could see an endless coast
Of rollin' black
But the thing I will remember most 
Were the stars reflecting back

Cause in that moment...
In that moment I knew...  that you... were a shooting star
You light up my nights....  with who...  you are...
But wish as I may...  your flame burns out just the same.  

So the world it fell back into night
And the waves returned to grey 
It's funny how one streak of light
makes us hunger for the day
So I took a breath of salty air
And I stared up at the sky
But there were no more answers there
But a galaxy of why's

Cause in that moment...
In that moment I knew...  that you... were a shooting star
You light up my nights....  with who...  you are...
But wish as I may...  your flame burns out just the same.
