Turnpike Troubadours - Oklahoma Stars lyrics

[Verse 1] Well the night goes on forever when you try to make it last We were pa**ing time together, just laying in the gra** 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 [Chorus] The stars in Oklahoma Never seen a night so cool and clear Shootin' stars in Oklahoma Burn so bright, then they disappear [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] ‘Neath the stars in Oklahoma Never seen a night so cool and clear Shootin' stars in Oklahoma They shine so bright, then they disappear [Verse 3] 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? [Instrumental] [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] ‘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
