When The Stars Come Out - Chris Stapleton

I was looking for a change of scene

You were looking at a magazine

It was red carpets and limousines

And the grass seemed so much greener

All we wanted was to get there fast

So, we packed up everything we had

Running on hope and a tank of gas

Like dreams ain’t just for dreamers

We couldn’t wait to leave that life behind

Trying to find salvation in that city limit sign

And one of those LA nights

When the stars come out

Oh, the stars come out and shine

And they burn so bright

They drown the downtown lights

When the stars come out

Oh, when the stars come out

Everybody’s, somebody, someday

Everybody’s got a part to play

Everybody’s trying to find a way

To say, what needs saying

Everybody’s got a friend of a friend

Somebody that can get you in Begging angels for a sin

In a game that we’re all playing

You and I, we’re gamblers holding cards that we can’t see

And I’m betting on you, you’re betting on me Down on the freeway, the sun is out of sight

And I got a feeling tonight might be the night

Yeah, tonight might be the night
