“Star Valley Nights” Lyrics
Written by David Michael Bennett
Me and my girl went down to the fields to see what we could see
one thousand degrees it was in my mind… It was sunny and bright (and bright)
We couldn't find any shade for several miles around us
I cried out for rain or just for a nice tall glass of iced lemonade (lemonade)
I would have given anything for that day to turn into a night (a night)
As we laid in the fields I looked up and said with all my might (my might)
I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
I said, I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
Star valley night
Opening a box on my 11th birthday
I received a telescope, I was so happy I went outside with it to play (to play)
I stopped dead in my tracks when I realized the sun
was casting all its rays across the sky masking all the stars (the stars)
I would have given anything for that day to turn into a night (a night)
As I sat with my telescope I shouted with all my might (my might)
I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
I said, I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
Star valley night
Walking down the street headed towards the annual circus
I saw an elephant escape a tent and overturn a cannon (a cannon)
The cannon shot a clown several blocks away into a factory
and that factory was filled with fireworks and they all went off at once (at once)
I would have given anything for that day to turn into a night (a night)
As multicolored lights exploded in the blue sky I cried (I cried)
I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
I said, I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
Me and my girl went down to the fields to scream at the sun
Go Away, Go away
I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
I said, I'd kick down the sun for a star valley night
Night
Star valley night
