Lyrics West Texas Rain - Wade Bowen

West Texas Rain

I have been restless
I have been reckless
I’ve been a strain on my mom’s heart
I’ve been a drunk
I’ve been a dreamer
Pulling the strings on this old guitar
I’ve found a few answers
I’ve still got questions
Kept it together and fallen apart
I got secrets and stories
Old shoebox memories
And choices that I’d like to change
Teardrops and laughter
And me chasing after
Years that go as quick as they came
Like a west Texas rain
Like a west Texas rain
Well I’ve been a lover
I’ve been a father
I’ve been a brother
And I’ve been a son
Well I’ve been a preacher
I’ve been a sinner
If you can name it
I’ve probably been one
I’m strong for the struggle
Constantly reaching
Reaching for something that I’ve never down
And I got secrets and stories
Old shoebox memories
Choices that I’d like to change
I got teardrops and laughter
And me chasing after
Years that go as quick as they came
Like a west Texas rain
Like a west Texas rain
So close your eyes and hold on
We’re here and we’re gone
It goes as quick as it came
Just like a west Texas rain
Just like a west Texas rain
Just like a west Texas rain
Just like a west Texas rain
