Built around A perfect night under the vast Texas sky - love, peace, and the infinite beauty of the stars. Dust & Wire's red-clay authenticity carries the concept through country that rewards repeat listens. "Orion's Belt is hanging like a chandelier" — the kind of line that sticks in your head three days later. The mood runs peaceful, romantic. Genre showcases on Majik's aren't filler — they're proof that independent music can carry real emotional weight when the lyrics and production align.
[verse 1]
Lay the blanket down on the hood of the truck
The engine's cooling and we're warming up
Her head on my shoulder, mine against the glass
Counting constellations as the night floats past
Orion's Belt is hanging like a chandelier
The Milky Way is pouring us a glass of clear
Light from a billion years ago tonight
Landing on her skin, making everything right
[chorus]
Stars over Texas, there ain't a ceiling
Just the universe revealing
How small we are and how big this love can be
Stars over Texas shining down on me
Stars over Texas, infinite and bright
Holding her close on this perfect night
Nothing else matters, nothing else compares
To the stars over Texas and the love that we share
[verse 2]
She points up and says that one's ours
I say which one, there's a billion stars
She says the one that's twinkling just a little more
Like it's got a secret that it's keeping score
Of every kiss we've shared beneath its glow
Every whispered promise, every I don't know
That turned into an I do under the night
The stars over Texas got our story right
[chorus]
Stars over Texas, there ain't a ceiling
Just the universe revealing
How small we are and how big this love can be
Stars over Texas shining down on me
Stars over Texas, infinite and bright
Holding her close on this perfect night
Nothing else matters, nothing else compares
To the stars over Texas and the love that we share
[bridge]
The city lights could never match this show
A trillion diamonds hanging high and low
And here we are, two specks of dust
Finding the universe in us, finding trust
[verse 3]
Shooting star crosses the whole horizon line
She says make a wish, I say I got mine
Lying right here next to me tonight
Underneath the most incredible sight
When the sun comes up and the stars all fade
The memory of this moment will be hand-made
Stitched into the fabric of our lives forever
Stars over Texas, now and wherever
We end up on this beautiful ride
I'll always see the stars reflected in her eyes
[chorus]
Stars over Texas, there ain't a ceiling
Just the universe revealing
How small we are and how big this love can be
Stars over Texas shining down on me
Stars over Texas, infinite and bright
Holding her close on this perfect night
Nothing else matters, nothing else compares
To the stars over Texas and the love that we share
