Angels in Stardust Page #8

---

If I tell,

you won't take 'em away,

will you?

Of course not.

Now, who bought 'em for you?

Tenkill.

He took me to the doc.

He did?

See?

Mama knows.

Why can't you do something?

Isn't that a shame?

Real shame.

I used to watch a lot of

movies on that old screen.

All my boyhood heroes...

John Wayne,

Burt Lancaster,

Charles Bronson.

I dreamed of being

just like 'em...

thought if I dreamed enough,

that it might come true.

Hell, I just stayed around here.

Pretty soon, I stopped dreaming.

So you gonna do that?

Just hang around here

all your life

hoping for a miracle?

I want to go to Oklahoma City.

Oklahoma City?

Heh. For what?

Mrs. Bowes recommended me

for a scholarship.

Oh. Well...

I've got an idea.

What?

You know,

I know this woman in Oklahoma City.

Heh. She runs

a boardinghouse.

It's for Indian kids.

I bet we could get you in...

if you was part Indian.

That could be you.

Come on.

Hey, bud...

Yeah?

I love you.

Love you, too.

Come here.

You be good, you hear?

I hear.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye, you.

You know,

most folks around Tardust

thought lightning did

the old movie screen in.

Others said Mickey and Old Ray

torched it for revenge.

Others, well,

they thought

Tenkill got tired of it

and burned the damn thing down,

maybe to break its hold

on Vallie Sue.

But Vallie,

she decided it was her.

She willed it to fire,

'cause it was time.

And I suppose she could've.

Anything's possible in Tardust.

Hey.

Hi.

Want a ride?

Yeah.

Okay. Hop on.

Where you going?

Oklahoma City.

Whoa.

I can't take you that far.

How

'bout the bus station in Acacia?

Yeah, I could do that.

Hold on tight, hon.

Hey.

Yeah?

Don't call me hon, okay?

My name is Vallie Sue Tenkiller.

Injun?

Yeah.

Anything wrong with that?

Not a damn thing.

Oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh

Oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh

Feeling like a refugee

Like it don't belong to me

The colors

flash across the sky

This air feels strange to me

Feeling like a tragedy

I take a deep breath

and close my eyes

One last time

Oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh

One last time

Oh oh, oh oh, oh

Forever

I'm getting tired

of diners and dusty roads

There's gotta be

something out there

God, I hope

I keep on dreaming about it

Even though I've never

been there before

Wasting time

at the drive-in's getting old

Try to forget,

but this feeling's taking hold

That I should run, run, run

To the city lights of gold

To the girl

Looking back

At me in the rearview mirror

Goodbye

So long

I'm going where I belong

And I'll chase the sun

across the sky

Till it disappears beside

I've been trapped

in somebody else's world

But I'm finally

leaving tonight

Exodus

This is my exodus

I know myself

But even I don't understand

Some say I'm crazy

But I guess

I'll take that chance

But I keep hearing

a far-off place

Calling out my name

Gathered my things

And it's time

to hitch a ride

Thought it'd be harder

But my smile is hard to hide

I'm finally ready

To fall in love

with the world again

To the girl

Holding back

Those tears

in the rearview mirror

Goodbye

So long

I'm going where I belong

And I'll chase the sun

across the sky

Till it disappears beside

I've been trapped

in somebody else's world

But I'm finally

leaving tonight

Exodus

This is my exodus

Exodus

Exodus

Ah, ah, ah

My exodus Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah

My exodus Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah

To the girl

No longer

Looking back

in the rearview mirror

Goodbye

So long

I've come to where I belong

And I'll chase the sun

across the sky

Till it disappears beside

I've been trapped

in somebody else's world

But I'm finally

leaving tonight

Exodus

This is my exodus

Exodus

This is my exodus
