Too Far From Texas
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a plane its
Headed for London
24 hours more
And he'll be on it
And I can't show my love
And I can't stop it
No I can't stop it
There's a house there
Somebody's waiting
Somebody else's arms will wrap around him
In that moment
What will he think then
When I can't touch him
REFRAIN
Maybe my love could fly
Over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to
Leave him alone
All that I really know
Is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home
In a room just
Outside of Houston
That's where I spend my nights
Trying to get through to him
He says he's coming back
In every letter
But he might never
No he might never
REFRAIN
Does he know how long
I've waited for this love to come
Does he know I'm holding on
And that won't change no matter where he's gone
REFRAIN X 2
Couldn't I, couldn't I wait
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay
One more day
Couldn't I, couldn't I wait
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay
One more day
