when I was just a little child standing on the plain
breeze from the darker side would bring the smell of rain
and as it fell and danced away everything seemed new
rain could only wash awy the memories of you

walked along this prairie and we whished up on that star
I guess the love we felt back than it didn't go that far
silence of my freedom won't let me sleep at night
I'm not blaming either one for neither one was right

even Texas, Taxas isn't big enough now
to hide the lonely feeling just keep coming out
and I see you, every time I turn around
all the open spaces with all the empty places
even Texas, isn't big enough now

open wide horizon cuts across the setting sun
early moon is rising and another day is done
something lies uneasy and the lous cayoty's cry
the sky goes forever makes me stop and wounder why

even Texas, Taxas isn't big enough now
to hide the lonely feeling just keep coming out
and I see you, every time I turn around
all the open spaces with all the empty places
even Texas, isn't big enough now
