Lyrics

I Lost the Star We Wished On

The lights of Tucson
Shine like diamonds in the sand
I'm heading west to find them
Leaving more than miles behind
And if the glow of the city
Brings a sparkle to my eyes
Maybe I'll stay forever
On Arizona desert time

Counting sleepless nights and stars in the sky
On a clear night I can count for miles
But I can't outrun everything I've done
'Cause I lost the star we wished on

The Catalina foothills
Are full of flowers in July
And to bury a heartache
It's a perfect place to hide
I'd like to dance in a garden
Without having to explain
Why I had to leave
And take my heart so far away

Sun comes up, sun goes down
Another night to ponder
And dust settles on sand and stone
'Til it's half past too late for going home
