So
long Texas, I’m leaving
you behind
With body and mind I say goodbye
I’ll miss your skies,
so blue and wide
With horizons that time done
forgot about
On sultry summer nights, past
refinery lights
Driving back from Corpus on
the weekends
Slumped against my side, she’d
sleep and I’d drive
Why didn’t I see love
when I should have
You stole my heart, with that
south Texas jewel
Looks like neither of us could
hold onto that girl
Were our lights not bright
enough, our dreams not tall
enough
Why didn’t I show love
when I could have
To New York City, she’s
left us both behind
Her body and mind I hope are
healthy
I miss her eyes: brown, beautiful
and wide
Setting like a sun on the
horizon
Now her life runs fast, I’ve
become part of her past
We don’t even talk anymore
Twelve-hundred miles away,
I know she’s there to
stay
Time to wish her well, try
to move on
So long Texas, you’re
empty and wide
And I can’t stand this
loneliness
Now your horizons cannot hold
me anymore
I’m as blue as your
skies and say goodbye,
I’m as blue as Texas
skies and say goodbye
I’m as blue as Texas
skies and say goodbye |
