Produced and sung by SR member Brian Bennett of Oak Land Productions. And thanks to Curt Collins (kmgreensman), a great up and coming writer for his melodic contributions to this.
A BRIGHTER STAR
(verse)
I was at the bar with my buddy
Chasin' Dewars down with Miller Lite
Two guys were goin' at it on TV
But my mind was on another fight
And I thought I would drink my way
Through one more feelin' lonely day
Then she sat down on the first stool to my right
(chorus)
My heart said "That's one sweet lady"
My head said, "Think of how things are
It's not a good time when you're on the rebound
You can't be sure if it's a darker night, or she's a brighter star"
(verse)
She sipped Coors as she spoke to her girlfriend
I heard her through the corner of my ear
She'd caught her guy out with some woman, and
As she raised her arm to wipe a tear
It knocked her purse off the bar
I picked it up, and said "Here you are"
She smiled and she went back to her beer.
(chorus)
My heart said "That's one sweet lady"
My head said, "Think of how things are
It's not a good time when you're on the rebound
You can't be sure if it's a darker night, or she's a brighter star"
(bridge)
My buddy had to leave for a date
Her girlfriend said "gotta go, I'm late"
And it was just the two of us.....
Accident or fate?
(chorus)
My heart said "That's one sweet lady"
My head said, "Think of how things are
It's not a good time when you're on the rebound
You can't be sure if it's a darker night, or she's a brighter star"
(tag)
I figured, what the heck, life don't have guarantees
She sure looks like a brighter star to me
