Emmylou Harris - Waltz Across Texas Tonight Lyrics
(rodney crowell/emmylou harris)The wind can blow cold, it moans and it criesWhen it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyesBut if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plainYoull just hear my voice as it calls out your nameYoull just hear my voice as it calls out your nameYouve been on a road that just dont seem to endWhere that broken old heart of yours wont ever mendYouve crossed over bridges and bridges they burnSo many rivers and so much to learnSo many bridges and so much to learnBut the moon is so full, the stars are so brightAnd my hand is steady, my touch Id lightLook in my eyes, hold on real tightAnd Ill waltz you my darling across texas tonightIll waltz you my darling across texas tonightWe both have known hard luckAnd love thats gone wrongWhen the ghosts take the shadows andThe night takes too longWe folded our cards when the hand wasnt strongBut that wheel will keep spinning long after were goneYeah, that wheel will keep spinning long after were goneAnd the moon is so full, the stars are so brightAnd my hand is steady, my touch is lightLook in my eyes, hold on real tight and illWaltz you my darling across texas tonightIll waltz you my darling across texas tonightLook in my eyes, hold on real tightAnd Ill waltz you my darling across texas tonightIll waltz you my darling across texas tonight
