Texas, When It Swings

Teardrop, Texas
You said you wanted some distance You said you didn’t love me no more So I held my head up like a man And I walked right out the door I’ve put a thousand miles of Texas now Between your heart and mine But I can’t find a road that’s long enough To leave your love behind (Chorus) So I’m writing you this letter To say I’m really not doing fine I thought I’d let you know That I can’t let you go Or get over you in time So if you should ever change your mind You can send your love to me In care of Heartbroke in Teardrop, Texas General Delivery I’ve thumbed and walked and wandered To finally get to where I am I left a trail of tears that’s crystal clear From the Red to the Rio Grande There’s no chance that I’ll forget you now Here I am and here I’ll wait And hope you’ll find it in your heart To take me back some day (Chorus)
