Songs that reference the moon, the stars, planets, galaxies \u2014\u00a0all of them.<\/p>\n Believe it or not, there are some country songs that draw inspiration from space.<\/p>\n Just like other artists in other genres, country singer have used the universe to help convey the message they’re trying to get across.<\/p>\n For example, in Tracy Lawrence’s “Stars Over Texas,” he uses the ever-constant stars to remind his lover that as long as they’re hanging in the sky, he will be true to her.
