Catch a
Falling Star
Catch a falling
star an’ put it in your pocket,
Never let it fade
away!
Catch a falling
star an’ put it in your pocket,
Save it for a
rainy day!
For love may come
an' tap you on the shoulder,
Some star-less
night!
Just in case you
feel you wanna’ hold her,
You’ll have a
pocketful of starlight!
Catch a falling
star an’ ( Catch a falling . . . ) put it in your pocket,
Never let it fade
away! ( Never let it fade away! )
Catch a falling
star an’ ( Catch a falling . . . ) put it in your pocket,
Save it for a
rainy day! ( Save it for a rainy day! )
For love may come
and tap you on the shoulder,
Some star-less
night!
An’ just in
case you feel you wanta’ hold her,
You’ll have a
pocketful of starlight!
( . . .
pocketful of starlight! ) [ hum in time ]
Catch a falling
star an’ ( Catch a falling . . . ) put it in your pocket,
Never let it fade
away! ( Never let it fade away! )
Catch a falling
star an’ ( Catch a falling . . . )
put it in your pocket,
Save it for a
rainy day! ( Save it for a rainy . . . Save it for a rainy, rainy
rainy day! )
For when your
troubles startn’ multiplyin’,
An' they just
might!
It’s easy to
forget them without tryin’,
With just a
pocketful of starlight!
Catch a falling
star an’ ( Catch a falling . . . ) put it in your pocket,
Never let it fade
away! ( Never let it fade away! )
Catch a falling
star an’ put it in your pocket,
Save it for a
rainy day!
( Save it for
rainy day! ) Save it for a rainy day!
