"Texas Echo" lyrics

"Texas Echo"

Under the open skies deep in the heart of Texas
The sun shines down on the cotton field
As the clouds roll by across the sky
Carry my love to the Rio Grande
Please, send my echo floating down through the canyon
Maybe she will hear my call
I'll be there soon I'll bring the moon
On a string of stars just for you

I miss the one I call my own, why did I leave her alone?
Two days more on this lonesome ride
Then she'll be riding by my side
Under the open sky deep in the heart of Texas
I can almost hear her calling me

I miss the one I call my own, why did I leave her alone?
Two days more on this lonesome ride
Then she'll be riding by my side
Under the open sky, deep in the heart of Texas
The sun shines down on the cotton field
As the clouds roll on by across the sky
Carry my love to the Rio Grande
