Waltz Across Texas Tonight (Unreleased 1994)

by Dolly Parton

Lyrics
The wind can blow cold, it moans and it cries
When it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyes
But if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plain
You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name
You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name
You've been on a road that just don't seem to end
Where that broken old heart of yours won't ever mend
Ah, but you'll never know what's beyond the next hill
With your face to the ground and your feet standing still
With your face to the ground and your feet standing still

The moon is so full, the stars are so bright
And my hand is steady, my touch is light
Look in my eyes, hold on real tight
And I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight

We both have known hard luck and love that's gone wrong
When the ghosts take the shadows and the night takes too long
But there's still gold in them hills and life on the spurs
So shake hands and come out dancing for all that you're worth
Shake hands and come out dancing for all that you're worth

The moon is so full, the stars are so bright
And my hand is steady, my touch is light
Look in my eyes, hold on real tight
And I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight

Look in my eyes, hold on real tight
And I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight
I'll waltz you, my darling, across Texas tonight
