So now someone is dying when you see 
a star fall 
It means that God in heaven for their soul 
has called 
And so from all their fear and suffering they 
are free 
The little matchgirl wondered could it be me 
When you see a star falling from the sky 
It means someone somewhere they have died 
And as the star does fall their soul does climb 
And all of their suffering is from a passed time 
So if you see a falling star her grandmother 
It means a person somewhere has gone 
to join the dead 
Their soul it goes to heaven in the sky 
Those they leave behind are left to cry 
But the Little Match girl know only one 
for her cared 
So now no more suffering she has to bear 
So the little match girl strikes a match 
a final time 
To see the one whom to her had been kind 
When you see a star falling from the sky 
It means someone somewhere they have died
