In All Those Deserted Farms I Searched For You

In The Driving Rain Most Nights Feeling Like A Ghost

Moving Unseen And Through Every Street Of Dreams

Then I Saw You One Day Laughing Under That Big Dallas Sky



After You Went Away I Thought I?d Never See Your Face Again

Ships That Pass In The Night

Thought I?d Make My Way Up North, Go Get A Steady Job

Work With My Hands If The Occasion Called



But The West Texas Wind

Kept Calling Me Back

Through China-town And Up The East River

To That Big Dallas Sky



I Knew I?d Find You In A Bar Some Place

Pretending You Never Knew The Stranger At The Door

But The Other Customers Were Wise To That Game

I Knew You?d Come Running Sooner Or Later



But Not Because Of My Sweet Longing Arms

And Not Because Of The Way I Held You That Night



But Because Of That Big Dallas Sky
