Billy Gilman Lyrics
"Southern Star"

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 open the door to the back porch
Barefoot on the cold floor
Didn't know what she was coming from
But that's what I'm going for.

Chorus:
And it seems like the sun never goes down
When the daylight fades on this side of town
And we're dancing around under the southern stars
And it feels like there's nothing but wide open sky
When you're spreading your wings and learning to fly
And you get so high you can 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 leafs
That's when you change your point of view.

I fell in love that summer
And I tried to tell her
Just try to catch an eagle
Like you could ever.

Chorus:
And it seems like the sun never goes down
When the daylight fades on this side of town
And we're dancing around under the southern stars
And it feels like there's nothing but wide open sky
When you're spreading your wings and learning to fly
And you get so high you can forget where you are
I can't come down, I've gone too far
Wishing on a southern star.

Yeah
And it seems like the sun never goes down (seems like the sun)
When the daylight fades on this side of town (yeah this side of town baby)
And we're dancing around under the Southern stars
I can't come down, I've gone too far
Wishing on my southern star.

Oh, my southern star...
