If you never rode West of, the Arizona border You can turn the other way, boy, but you never get far You be living a lie, if you wanna see the wonders of the age You must follow, the evening star Evening star, shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream Where you are, you can see the loneliness, I mean And if I gotta fight, I can never play, somebody else's game I can follow the evening star, starlight, you never need somebody else's name If you follow the evening star Have you ever known a sunset, when the sky's on fire How you end another day, boy, you be searching too far Like the desert I rode on, any memory is lost in the restless wind I just lie beneath, the evening star Evening star, shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream Where you are, you can see the loneliness, I mean And if I gotta fight, I can never play, somebody else's game I can follow the evening star, starlight, you never need somebody else's name If you follow the evening star Have you ever held a woman, in the California moonlight Put your money on a good night, if you never been there It's a sight for sore eyes, if you wanna see the wonders of the age Making love beneath, the evening star Evening star, shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream Where you are, you can see the loneliness, I mean And if I gotta fight, I can never play, somebody else's game I can follow the evening star, starlight, you never need somebody else's name If you follow the evening star
