Stars Fell on Alabama Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Moonlight and magnolias, starlight in your hair
All the world a dream come true
Did it really happen, was I really there?
Was I really there with you?

[Chorus 1]
We lived our little drama
We kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama that night

[Chorus 2]
I can't forget the glamour
Your eyes held onto the light
And stars fell on Alabama last night

[Verse 2]
I never planned in my imagination
A situation so heavenly
Our very land that no one else could enter
And in the center, just you and me

[Chorus 3]
Hear my heart beat like a hammer
My arms wound around you tight
And stars fell on Alabama last night
[Verse 2]
I never planned in my imagination
A situation so heavenly
Our very land that no one else could enter
And in the center just you and me

[Chorus 3]
Hear my heart beat like a hammer
My arms wound around you tight
A star fell on Alabama last night

[Outro]
Yes, we lived our little drama
We kissed on the dune, so what?
And stars fell on Alabama last night

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
