Ocean of stars
Why've I gone so far?
I miss my home
I hear those engines drone
The runway is set
Let's move this fucking jet
I have to go
Despite all the sleet and snow
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at the palace
And I never in my life felt so alone
I worked for the show
Stars would come and go
I worked the lights
I even swept some nights
But now I'm a host
That's worthy of a toast
Don't you agree
My little honeybee?
Just a late night king leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at the palace
I'll be at 17th and Broadway by tonight
So far away from all these wonders
Even as the Rolex spins
I just courted seventeen miles
Came upon all winds bend
And even in dreams of light
I can still hear her call
Through the tall grass and weeds
And I know I'll never be the same on this road to Calgary
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at the palace
And I never in my life felt so alone
And I never in my life felt so alone
