Come back to Texas And let's finish what we started Because things just aren't the same Since we parted ways I just lay in bed all day And dream my life away And now it's October And I thought that it'd be colder by now But the sun just won't give up And its heat just brings me down And now all I can remember are those summer nights When you were in my arms And I want you back Come back to Texas
2.
I held something together once And I'd like to think that I could do it again The standard's set in stone But the tune's so different in my head So here's to all who thought they'd heard the end They appear indifferent to the outcome But things are different when you peer inside These mindsets laced with envy only self-destruct in time I hope there's enough for me to reset mine They say it's a funny time in life But after a few tries They know I'll get it right But these days Time's not on my side

After the search for prophetic words In the $15 of trash in my hands I stand in disbelief of how selfish I am And how obsessive I can be All I have is all I need And I wait with my soul split wide to receive So out the door of 204 And into the world outside Down below I can see the city lights And in my ear is a voice I barely recognize And this is my life
4.
Can you still hear me Or am I too far gone? I know now that this choice was a mistake And I want to call it all off It's 6AM I'm surrounded by the quiet of my room again And I'm so alone With nowhere to go I've become uncomfortable With my one-sided life I forged my own path But everyone else was right Is it too late to start again? Because each new day I become more entrenched In my unsettling circumstance In my one-sided life I forged my own path But everyone else was right But if there's room for me In this twisted world Surely I fit in somewhere Surely there's something more
5.
And you tell me This is your own way of giving my life purpose Without it I'd be worthless And you tell me If I take some time out of my day I'll see the truth of what you're saying But somehow I don't buy that, baby Somehow I think maybe that your truth is all a lie And you say I'm blind Or at least that I read too far between the lines But somehow I don't buy that, darling Somehow I know that there's more than All that seems so obvious at first sight So if kindness has a face I want to see it And if there's such a thing as grace I want to feel it
