When the Stars Come Out

I was looking for a change of scene You were looking at a magazine It was red carpets and limousines The grass seemed so much greener All we wanted was to get there fast So we packed up everything we had Runnin' on hope and a tank of gas Like dreams ain't just for dreamers We couldn't wait to leave that life behind Trying to find salvation in that city limit sign And one of those early nights When the stars come out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out Everybody's somebody, someday Everybody's got a part to play Everybody's tryin' to find a way To say, what needs saying Everybody's got a friend of a friend Somebody that can get you in Begging Angels for a sin In the game that we're all playin' You and I, we're gamblers Sorting cards that we can't see I'm betting on you You're betting on me One of those early nights When the stars came out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out Down on the freeway The sun is out of sight And I got a feelin' Tonight might be the night Yeah, tonight might be the night One of those early nights When the stars come out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out When the stars come out Oh-whoa When the stars come out
