Southern Star Lyrics - Billy Gilman - Billy Gilman

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 opened the door to the back porch 

Barefoot on the cold floor 

Didn't know where she was coming from 

But that's what I'm goin' for 

[Chorus] 

And it seems like the sun never goes down 

When the daylight fades on this side of town 

And we're dancin' around 

Under the southern stars 

And it feels like there's nothin' but wide open sky 

When you're spreadin' your wings and learning to fly 

And you get so high you can't 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 leaves 

That's when you change your point of view 

I fell in love that summer 

And I tried to tell her 

But just try to catch an eagle 

Like you could ever 

[Chorus]
