When the Stars Come Out - Chris Stapleton

Wake me up when the stars fall down, my love Tell me why should I keep on trying, my love Yeah, I promised you that after you there would be no one else So wake up when the stars fall down, my love And I don't know why If you did me so wrong Why do I still cry When I see you in my dreams And I wake up to reality I don't understand Do you really mean it When you say you ain't gonna stay What are you really afraid of? Is it what you made of? I really never cared, love And I don't know why If you did me so wrong Why do I still cry When I see you in my dreams And I wake up to reality Yeah, I'm fucked-up in my head Alright Yeah, I'm fucked-up in my head Alright Wake me up when the stars fall down Tell me why should I keep on trying

It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas Closing time; another day is done When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol He can't find a job, but Lord, he's found a gun He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation Then he lets the old man run out in the street Even though he knows they'll come with guns a-blazin' Already he can feel a great relief Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars? Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars? He pictured the arrival of the cruisers Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes He knows that when they're shootin' at this loser They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars? Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars? The evening news carried all the details He dies in every living room in town And in his own a bottle is thrown in anger And his father cries, "We'll never live this down!" Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars? And fly like eagles out among the stars?

I spent the morning at an old friend's grave Flowers and 'Amazing Grace', he was a good man He spent his whole life spinning his wheels Never knowing how the real thing feels He never took a chance or took the time to dance And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye Today is the first day of the rest of my life I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on And learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, without any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah, I wanna be running When the sand runs out 'Cause people do it everyday Promise themselves they're gonna change I've been there, but I'm changing from the inside out That was then and this is now I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man And when they carve my stone, they'll write these words "Here lies a man who lived life for all it's worth" I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on And learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, without any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah, I wanna be running When the sand runs out The cold wind blows across the graveyard I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in my ear I'm gonna stop looking back and starting moving on And learn how to face my fears Love with all of my heart, make my mark I wanna leave something here Go out on a ledge, without any net That's what I'm gonna be about Yeah, I wanna be running When the sand runs out Yes I do

Come down When you're ready When you're able to, we never talk about it And we won't speak for weeks You turn the other cheek And that's on me What are you gonna blame it on this time? Lose track of your mind? You scared of the light? Hope the sun doesn't rise 'Cause the fear isn't fine One night It'll all be over when the morning comes We fucked around, we faked a real love Both scared to leave my perfect dream One night Lights were dim and then the air was closed We're breathing heavy, but we're movin' slow Hope I never wake from the best mistake (Come down) (Come down) Come close Let me see you In the early light, it's not so complicated I barely know your name It's hard to hide the shame But that's on you What are you gonna blame it on this time? Lose track of you're mind? You scared of the light? Hope the sun doesn't rise 'Cause the fear isn't fine One night It'll all be over when the morning comes We fucked around, we faked a real love Both scared to leave my perfect dream One night Lights were dim and then the air was closed We're breathing heavy, but we're movin' slow Hope I never wake from the best mistake Come down Come down

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Startin' from zero, got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me, myself, I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just across the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs Finally see what it means to be living See, my old man's got a problem He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his Mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "somebody's got to take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruisin', entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job So I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? You still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way
