Lyrics:
At a truck stop at three in the mornin’ Sometimes you can see things so clear The direction your whole life’s been goin’ And the lost dreams you once held so dear
I parked my old rig by the diner And burned one before I went in I wasn’t needin’ a reminder ‘bout you But there it was on the West Texas wind
There’s an old song on the air tonight And nothin’ makes me feel alone Like rain in the street lights Waltzes after midnight And rememberin’ you’re never comin’ home
I last heard you’d moved up to Boston Lord I never imagined you there To me you were the queen of Austin With neon magic like a crown in your hair
The rain turned the potholes to puddles As the chorus came ‘round one more time There by the end I had trouble tellin’ Were those Texas’ tears or mine
There’s an old song on the air tonight And nothin’ makes me feel alone Like rain in the street lights Waltzes after midnight And rememberin’ you’re never comin’ home
Said the fallen-down fenceposts to the old weepin’ willow I reckon we both should have known Our barbed wire bluebird has flown
