Oklahoma Stars

[Verse 1]
Well the night goes on forever when you try and make it last
We were passing time together just by laying in the grass
And we stared into the heavens 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
Shooting stars in Oklahoma
Burn so bright, then disappear

[Verse 2]
Well the moonlight has a way of throwing shadows on the night
Would have been a shame to waste the only space we had to hide
Then the morning glow grew brighter, shining light upon our faces
We faded with the dawn and went our separate ways

[Chorus]
Like the stars in Oklahoma
Never seen a night so cool and clear
Shooting stars in Oklahoma
Burn so bright, then disappear

[Bridge]
The stars in Oklahoma on the banks in late September
They 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]
It would take a fool to say it, like a photograph of grace
But fools need supervision or a gift for saving face
Yeah we got it on a handshake, we bought it for a song
Just to chase a simple feeling of doin' something wrong

[Chorus]
'Neath the stars in Oklahoma
Never seen a night so cool and clear
Shooting stars in Oklahoma
Burn so bright, then disappear
Yeah we burn so bright, then disappear
