Stars over Dakota Songtext
von Terra Lightfoot

The stars over Dakota have been calling out your name
I′m lost inside their glowing twilight flame
Because I'm thinking of you, wondering if you are alright
I′m lost inside the stars again tonight

The blues boys in Chicago, they play loud and they play busy
The salty gin martinis made me dizzy
You know I'm sweet as honey, but my love it don't come cheap
And each line on this road cries out for speed

And I pray
For the sun to take these stars away
And I wait
For you to tell me that you′re here to stay
To stay


I stop the car in Fargo, take a picture with the sign
I wonder if you′ll make it here sometime
Each constellation dancing far above these yellow lines
I'm lost inside the stars again tonight

Oh these fields in Iowa grow fast and they grew tall
As summer season dies into the fall
My love it don′t come cheap
And sometimes it don't come at all
I′m lost inside the stars again, that's all

And I pray
For the sun to take these stars away
And I wait
For you to tell me that you′re here to stay
To stay
To stay
