| I see her climbing my fence
|
| She’s throwing stones up at my window
|
| She loves the midnight hour
|
| She wants to play and that’s all I need to know
|
| I opened the door to the back porch
|
| Barefoot on the cold floor
|
| Didn’t know where she was coming from
|
| But that’s what I’m goin' for
|
| And it seems like the sun never goes down
|
| When the daylight fades on this side of town
|
| And we’re dancin' around
|
| Under the southern stars
|
| And it feels like there’s nothin' but wide open sky
|
| When you’re spreadin' your wings and learning to fly
|
| And you get so high you can’t forget where you are
|
| I can’t come down
|
| I’ve gone too far
|
| Wishing on a southern star
|
| We take the long way home
|
| That’s where you find your dreams come true
|
| Lying under the falling leaves
|
| That’s when you change your point of view
|
| I fell in love that summer
|
| And I tried to tell her
|
| But just try to catch an eagle
|
| Like you could ever
|
| Yeah, it seems like the sun never goes down
|
| When the daylight fades on this side of town
|
| And we’re dancin' around under the southern stars
|
| I can’t come down, I’ve gone too far
|
| I’m wishin' on my southern star |
