STARS OVER TEXAS 

I sit here alone on the wrong side of the water 
Listening to the crickets on a warm summer night 
The stars are above me and as I watch them sparkle 
I wonder if you back home can see all their light 

Do the same stars shine over Texas 
Does that same moon watch over your sleep 
And does the same sun warm you 
When you wake up tomorrow 
If that's so, then I know you ain't that far away 

I miss the smell of bluebonnets, those wide open spaces 
The soft, gentle touch of your hand on my skin 
If I could fly like an eagle, I'd be back tomorrow 
But these tears on my face show the mood that I'm in 

And do the same stars shine over Texas 
Does that same moon watch over your sleep 
And does the same sun warm you 
When you wake up tomorrow 
If that's so, then I know you ain't that far away 

Do the same stars shine over Texas 
Does that same moon watch over your sleep 
And does the same sun warm you 
When you wake up tomorrow 
If that's so, then I know you ain't that far away
