Little Betty Falling Star by Gene Pitney Lyrics

I put you up there
So far above me
An angel star
Just meant to love me!

Shalala, shala-lala
Shalala, shala-lala

'Till something happened to you
You used to shine in the blue
And the world was under your spell
'Till down from the sky you fell –
Little Betty falling star!

Shalala, shala-lala
Shalala, shala-lala

No star was ever so bright
And we would meet every night!
Now my empty arms long for you
I just can't believe we're through –
Little Betty falling star!
Shalala, shala-lala
Shalala, shala-lala

I put you up there
So far above me
An angel star
Just meant to love me!

Well, you made me cry –
Would you please tell me why?
I turned out to be so wrong –
Where is my star, why has it gone?
There's no quarrel we cannot patch
So I'm waiting her to catch
Little Betty falling star!

Shalala, shala-lala
Shalala, shala-lala

Dear Betty falling star!
My Betty falling star!
