Starry Eyes, how can I get to you
My true little
Starry Eyes , what can I say or do
For you my little
Starry Eyes, Starry Eyes forever shall be mine

Starry Eyes what can I say
Starry Eyes, what can I do for your attention
Starry Eyes Starry Eyes forever shall be mine

When I’m alone, I hear and feel you
I wish that I could reach right out and touch you
but knowing you’re the one to greet me, and meet me
two alone in the dark, may you be

Starry Eyes, what can I say to make you listen

For you, I’d do anything for you

For you, there ain’t nothing I wouldn’t do

For you, you’re beauty makes the sun rise

For you, the moon also shines

For you, For you, for you

For you, I’m cooked to you so rare

You are and someone’s there

To believe me, never leave me

With you there’s so many thing to be done

For you, with the tears in my eyes

For you, Happiness and love meets my pride

For you, Alone in my room

For you, I’m brought out of the gloom

For you, For you, For you

How must it take so long? I can only try these unsure times to be strong Till I can know something further of you till I belong I can only wait and hope for not wrong? I can’t plant any more plants/plans I can’t fly any more fires for your pain I can’t lay any more traps My adult traps have already been made with all days I could kiss you, hug you So many things I could do with you But there is nothing I can do, but wait for you

I have tried and tried everything I know how

I have died and died because of that final result I could allow?

I have cried and cried easy days and sleepless nights too

But there is nothing I can do, but wait for you

There are other girls I’m sure, but not for me to go for

The other girls are around, but I never tried to score

I’d be alone all the time being completely true

I who would wait forever wait for you

Writing you this letter
To say I’m felling better
Getting used to spending all my nights alone
Wouldn’t worry about it
I can do without it
Writing you to say I’m on the right track now

Got my consolations
My anticipations
Keeps my smiling every time I think your way
I see morning showers
While away my hours
Writing you to say I’m on the right track now

If you’d come to see me
That would really free me
Tell me what the trip you took has done for you
Come and be my lover
I think you’ll discover
That I’m lik

Legendary rock n roll pioneer Roger Kynard “Roky” Erickson hails from Austin, Texas. He is, in the words of music writer Richie Unterberger, one of “the unknown heroes of rock and roll.” As singer, songwriter, and guitar player for the legendary Austin, TX band The 13th Floor Elevators, the first rock and roll band to describe their music as “psychedelic”, Roky had a profound impact on the San Francisco scene when the group traveled there in 1966.

The politics we believe in starts not with expensive TV ads or extravaganzas, but with you — with people organizing block-by-block, talking to neighbors, co-workers and friends.

And that kind of campaign takes time to build.
