Waltz Across Texas Tonight

Lyrics

The wind can blow cold
 It moans and it cries
 When it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyes
 But if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plain
 You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name
 You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name
 You've been on a road that just don't seem to end
 Where that broken old heart of yours won't ever mend
 You've crossed over bridges and bridges they burn
 So many rivers and so much to learn
 So many bridges and so much to learn
 But the moon is so full
 The stars are so bright
 And my hand is steady
 My touch is light
 Look in my eyes
 Hold on real tight
 And I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
 I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
 ♪
 We both have known hard luck
 And love that's gone wrong
 When the ghosts take the shadows
 And the night takes too long
 We folded our cards when the hand wasn't strong
 But that wheel will keep spinning long after we're gone
 Yeah, that wheel will keep spinning long after we're gone
 And the moon is so full
 The stars are so bright
 And my hand is steady
 My touch is light
 Look in my eyes
 Hold on real tight
 And I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
 I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
 Look in my eyes
 Hold on real tight
 And I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
 I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
