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,

(verse 2)

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,

(verse 3)

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,
