| He said I’ll make your dreams come true in Texas
|
| And he captured my Minnesota heart
|
| I was so naïve 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
|
| Waiting all alone
|
| I’m staring out the window through these teardrops
|
| Holding onto the only dream
|
| That turned out right
|
| We’re on a grey hound bound for Minnesota
|
| And he’s in Dallas without us
|
| Tonight
|
| Oh how I hate to break the news to mama
|
| She’s getting on in years and worries so
|
| Maybe I should’ve stayed in Dallas
|
| And gave him another chance
|
| Right now I just don’t know
|
| (Repeat Chorus)
|
| He said I’ll make your dreams come true in Texas
|
| But he’s in Dallas without us
|
| Tonight |
