West Texas Sky

So you're drivin' away these miles

So far away from your southern home

Takin' your charms and dreams to the Golden State

Make your way, seal your fate

That's when you're gone away

Where no one will hear you cry

When you're late

For that west Texas sky

When you left home, I didn't think twice

Oh, I knew, you had to roam

I knew that life was getting you down

You always feel alone when there's no one around

But who gets cut when the knife is dull?

And who gets lost when the map is full

Nobody wins and nobody loses

Just a handful of sorrows

And too many excuses

You wanted to walk beside the ocean

Oh, and stand beside the sea

And now you can't wait until tomorrow

There's so much to do

And so much to see

(guitar instrumental)

So you're drivin' away these miles

So far away from your southern home

Takin' your charms and dreams to the Golden State

Make your way, seal your fate

That's when you're gone away

Where no one will hear you cry

When you're late

For that west Texas sky

When you're late

For that west Texas sky (2x)

Mmmhmm

When you're late

For that west Texas sky

For that west Texas sky
