lyrics

there's a dark horse on a dirt road
an old cowboy at the crossroads
and you're saying that you don't know where I am

I'm headed back to Texas
with a broken heart and a message
for all the ones that kept us from the light

it's that lonesome feeling
that keeps my soul from healing
born in the faces and the warmth of the night
you get your heart
you get your woman
you get your life

baby I've been praying
if god thinks I'm worth saving
then maybe there's still hope for us in time

but you can't say you believe me
only when you need me
love is more than tender lullabies

CHORUS

so you stayed up and you laid down
you woke up and you walked out
you left me with your questions and your pride

and I'm headed back to Texas
with a broken heart and a message
for all the ones that kept us from the light

CHORUS
