"Wide Open Spaces" lyrics
She stares out her window at the West Texas sky
Watching the sun sinking low
Now the desert lies empty just like her life
A wild flower with no place to grow
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces the wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
She once was the queen of a last chance cafe
To the near the main road out of town
Now she waits for her memories that never arrive
She is lost and she'll never be found
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces the wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
Now the desert lies empty just like her life
A wild flower with no place to grow
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces those wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
Watching the sun sinking low
Now the desert lies empty just like her life
A wild flower with no place to grow
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces the wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
She once was the queen of a last chance cafe
To the near the main road out of town
Now she waits for her memories that never arrive
She is lost and she'll never be found
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces the wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
Now the desert lies empty just like her life
A wild flower with no place to grow
Her heart's like those wide open spaces
The years have left traces
Of long lost lovers gone by
And each day she faces those wide open spaces
By counting her heartaches with each tear she cries
