He said, "I'll make your dreams come true in Texas? And he captured my Appalachian heart I was so naive that I believed him When he promised we'd never be apart So we packed and pulled a U-Haul down to Dallas A year went by and the baby came along Then his old friends and the night life came between us Dreams turned into sleepless nights of waiting all alone I'm staring out the window through these teardrops Holding on to the only dream that turned out right We're on a Greyhound bound for West Virginia He's in Dallas without us tonight Oh Lord, I hate to break the news to mama She's gettin' on in years and worries so Maybe I should've stayed in Dallas And given him another chance Right now, I just don't know I'm staring out the window through these teardrops Holding on to the only dream that turned out right We're on a Greyhound bound for West Virginia He's in Dallas without us tonight He said.? I'll make your dreams come true in Texas? He lives in Dallas without us tonight
