Lone Star - Paul Williams

Lone star, on your roller coaster ride

How much longer can you keep it all inside

Are you happy under cover

Would you like to take a lover

Lone star with your come and love me look

Every gesture’s like a chapter in a book

You convince us when you say it

You don’t need to sing or play it

When you ride the range

Of emotions to the top of the hill

Surreal explosions

Made of hot breath and chills

Staying home might be a welcome change

This could be the start of something strange

Lone star

Are you coming out tonight

Come and charm us with your laughter and your light

Let our sweet affection feed you

Did I mention that we need you

Lone star as you rise above us all

Who could tell that you’re afraid

That you might fall

With your hands not even shaking

We applaud the chance you’re taking

When you ride the range

Of emotions to the top of the hill

Surreal explosions

Made of hot breath and chills

Staying home might be a welcome change

This could be the start of something strange

Lone star

Are you coming out tonight

Come and charm us with your laughter and your light

Let our sweet affection feed you

Did I mention that we need you

Lone star, lone star, lone star, lone star, lone star
