Too Far from Texas

[Verse 1: Stevie Nicks]

There's a plane, it's headed for London

Twenty-four hours more and he'll be on it

And I can't show my love, and I can't stop it

Oh, I can't stop it

[Verse 2: Stevie Nicks]

There's a house there, somebody's waiting

Somebody else's arms will wrap around him

And in that moment, what will he think then

When I can't touch him

[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Natalie Maines]

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

[Verse 3: Natalie Maines]

In a room just outside of Houston

That's where I spend my nights, trying to get through to him

He says he's comin' back in every letter

But he might never

No he might never

[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Natalies Maines]

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

[Bridge: Stevie Nicks & Natalies Maines]

Does he know how long

I've waited for this love to come

Does he know I'm holdin' on

And that won't change no matter where he's gone

[Chorus: Stevie Nicks & Natalies Maines]

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

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

[Outro]

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
