Heath Bennett - Shooting Star Lyrics

If I could live a day as a shooting star
The next day, home wouldn't seem so far
If I could live a day as a neon light
I'd see a silver lining in the darkest night
If I could live a day as a city bus
I'd see that everybody is just one of us
We do what we can
We play the cards we got in our hand
Maybe I would understand
If I could live a day as another man
If I could live a day as a dollar bill
I'd know how having no home feels
If I could live a day as a Georgia pine
Maybe I'd learn to take my time
If I could live a day as a work of art
I'd know what it's like to be picked apart
We do what we can
We play the cards we got in our hand
Maybe I would understand
If I could live a day as another man
If the shoes don't fit
We don't try 'em on
And maybe that's just where we're going wrong
If I took another life
And tried it on for size
Would it make me stop and think about my own
We all do what we can
We play the cards we got in our hand
Maybe I could start to understand
If I could live a day as another man
