Waltz Across Texas Tonight - Lyrics by Harris Emmylou


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 plainyou'll just hear my voice as it calls out your nameyou'll just hear my voice as it calls out your nameyou've been on a road that just don't seem to endwhere that broken old heart of yours won't ever mendyou've 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 is lightlook in my eyes, hold on real tightand I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonightwe both have known hard luck and love that's gone wrongwhen the ghosts take the shadows and the night takes too longwe folded our cards when the hand wasn't strongbut that wheel will keep spinning long after we're goneyeah, that wheel will keep spinning long after we're 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 tightand I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonightlook in my eyes, hold on real tightand I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight
