Back To Texas

(album: I'm From The Country - 1998)

I left Houston 'round two a.m. in the middle of a pouring rain
Drove all night to Oklahoma, scared I'd never see you again
I found you in Tulsa, hoping you'd agree to come on home with me

I've been feeling like one lone star lost in the midnight blue
Darling you're still deep in my heart
And there's nothing I won't do
But I can't get back to Texas without you

I never wanted to see the end of those Amarillo summer nights
I'd give anything to hold you again 'neath the Austin city lights
Say you'll come back baby, we can find our dreams down in Abilene

I've been feeling like one lone star lost in the midnight blue
Darling you're still deep in my heart
And there's nothing I won't do
But I can't get back to Texas without you

I've been feeling like one lone star lost in the midnight blue
Darling you're still deep in my heart
And there's nothing I won't do
But I can't go back to Texas
But I can't go back to Texas
But I can't go back to Texas without you
I can't go back to Texas
I can't go back to Texas
Without you
