Texas sage is coming into bloom
One hundred ten degrees by noon
I can't keep you here by force
You fade and follow your own course
You smell like rosemary and lavendar
I keep your birthday on my calendar
I'll send you off with the full moon
I know the end is coming soon
Well that was another time
And that was another place
You kept my heart alive
You kissed my changing face
That was another world
And I was another girl
I was another girl
I was another girl
Will you teach me everything you know
Just give it all to me before you go
I'll write in down in my notebook
Before I let you off the hook
I know you're ready to get on with it
I know you don't want me to think you quit
There's more to lose for you than gain
You're gone before the winter rain
Well that was another time
And that was another place
You kept my heart alive
You kissed my changing face
That was another world
And I was another girl
I was another girl
I was another girl
Texas sage is coming into bloom
One hundred ten degrees by noon
You stayed as long as you were able
I keep your ashes on my table
Well that was another time
And that was another place
You kept my heart alive
You kissed my changing face
That was another world
And I was another girl
I was another girl
I was another girl
Yeah that was another time
And that was another place
You kept my heart alive
You kissed my changing face
And that was another world
And I was another girl
And I was another girl
I was another girl
