Too Far from Texas

There's a plane, it's headed for London

Twenty-four hours more and he'll be on it

And I can't show my love, and I can't stop it

Ooh, I can't stop it

There's a house there, somebody's waiting

Somebody else's arms will wrap around him

And in that moment what will he think then...

When I can't touch him

R: Maybe my love could fly over the ocean

Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone

All that I really know is that he's goin'

Too far from Texas

Too close to home

In a room just outside of Houston

That's where I spend my nights trying to get through to him

He says he's comin' back in every letter...

But he might never

No he might never

R:

Does he know how long

I've waited for this love to come

Does he know I'm holdin' on

And that won't change no matter where he's gone

R:

Couldn't I, couldn't I wait

Couldn't he, couldn't he stay one more day
