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 you ve crossed over bridges and bridges they burn so many rivers and so much to learn so many bridges and so much to learn but 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 we folded our cards when the hand wasn t strong but that wheel will keep spinning long after we re gone yeah that wheel will keep spinning long after we re gone and 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 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
