As Dr Dave's , not an openining line but one of my faves

I saw 2 shooting stars last night,
I wished on them , but they were only satellites
It's wrong to wish on space hardware
I wish , I wish , I wish you'ld care

"Evidence", from a band named Urbandub:

"[color=#000000][font=Arial][size=4]Time has a way of healing, or so they say[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=Arial][size=4]So why am I still left here cryin'?"[/size][/font][/color]
