Starlightin’ Time in Texas
(Bob Nolan)
When it’s starlightin’ time in Texas,
In the skies are the eyes of Texas.
Shinin’ down from above on the plains that I love,
Callin’ this wanderer home,
For my heart’s in the heart of Texas
And it’s there it will always remain
Till I’m stealin’ a kiss from a sweet Southern miss
When it’s starlightin’ time in Texas.
Why do I feel this longin’
For that Lone Star home of mine?
Because I’ve seen the sunset clear the way
And cause a million stars to shine.
When it’s starlightin’ time in Texas,
In the skies are the eyes of Texas.
Shinin’ down from above on the plains that I love,
Callin’ this wanderer home,
For my heart’s in the heart of Texas
And it’s there it will always remain
Till I’m stealin’ a kiss from a sweet Southern miss
When it’s starlightin’ time in Texas.
