I walked her to the plane in Phoenix
I said, "say hello to your mama"
she couldn't even look me in the eye
I drove out to the desert
just like nothin' happened
but somewhere in the darkness
I heard her say good-bye

Now I hear voices in the wind
sayin' she ain't coming back again
I look for guidance in the sky
but the stars have all gone out tonight
I feel like the love of my life is dyin'
even the man in the moon is cryin'

I'm burnin' up this blacktop
heading down to Austin
I wonder if she misses me tonight
I wish that I could tell her
how much I love her
and I wish this damned old
Thunderbird could fly

Now I hear voices in the wind
sayin' she ain't coming back again
I look for guidance in the sky
but the stars have all gone out tonight
I feel like the love of my life is dyin'
even the man in the moon is cryin'

(turn around)

Now I hear voices in the wind
sayin' she ain't coming back again
I look for guidance in the sky
but the stars have all gone out tonight
I feel like the love of my life is dyin'
even the man in the moon is cryin'

even the man in the moon is cryin'
even the man in the moon is cryin'
even the man in the (moooon) is cryin'
