Turnpike Troubadours, Jamie Lin Wilson - Oklahoma Stars lyrics
[Turnpike Troubadours, Jamie Lin Wilson - Oklahoma Stars lyrics]
You try to make it last
We were passing time together
Just laying in the grass
And we looked up at the heavens
And we saw the worlds collide
We were lying still and watching
They were flying through the sky
The stars in Oklahoma
Never seen a night so cool and clear
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
Burn so bright, then they disappear
Well the moonlight has a way of
Throwing shadows on the night
It would be a shame to waste the
Only place we had to hide
With the morning glowing bright and
Shining light upon our faces
We faded with the dawn and then
We went our separate ways
'Neath the stars in Oklahoma
Never seen a night so cool and clear
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
They shine so bright, then they disappear
Ah the stars in Oklahoma on
The banks in late September
And I lead you through the darkness
On a night you won’t remember
Is everyone that easy? Do they
All just play the fool?
Are they all just out here lookin' for
A way to break the rules?
Well it would take a fool to say it
Like a photograph of grace
And fools need supervision or a
Gift for saving face
Yeah, we got it on a handshake
Bought it for a song
Yeah, I chase a simple feeling
Of doin' something wrong
'Neath the stars in Oklahoma
Never seen a night so cool and clear
Shootin' stars in Oklahoma
Shine so bright, then they disappear
Shine so bright, then they disappear
