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
