Lyrics
Intro
steady acoustic guitar
Verse 1
Daylight fades on the open rangeFirst stars appear in the quiet skyHorse stands calm after the long exchangeCowboy rests as the night draws nigh
Chorus
Evening stars over open groundSimple peace in the clear night airCowboy quiet that the heart has foundCounting lights while the soft winds share
Verse 2
Cool air rises in the easy darkSoft wind moves through the open landEvery light feels steady and starkShared with the horse on the quiet stand
Chorus
Evening stars over open groundSimple peace in the clear night airCowboy quiet that the heart has foundCounting lights while the soft winds share
Verse 3
Stars grow bright as the feeling staysRange still quiet in the silver glowEvening stars marked in these range-born daysPart of the life that the cowboys know
Chorus
Evening stars over open groundSimple peace in the clear night airCowboy quiet that the heart has foundCounting lights while the soft winds share
Bridge
When the days feel heavy and the work runs longEvening stars keep the spirit strongStanding quiet where the night belongs
