Oklahoma Stars

Well the night goes on forever when you try to make it last We were passing time together, just laying in the grass And we looked up at the heaven, 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 it on a 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 and 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 o' grace Fools need supervision, or a gift for saving face Yeah, we got it on a handshake, bought it for a song Yeah, chase a simple feeling for doing 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 --- Oklahoma Stars - Turnpike Troubadours
