(Donny Kees, Richard Ross, Johnny MacRae)
He said I'll make your dreams come true in Texas
Dia bilang aku akan mewujudkan impianmu di Texas
And he captured my Appalachian heart
Dan dia menangkap hati Appalachian-ku
I was so naive that I believed him
Aku begitu naif sehingga aku percaya padanya
When he promised we'd never be apart
Saat dia berjanji kita tidak akan pernah berpisah
So we packed and pulled a U-Haul down to Dallas
Jadi kami mengemasi dan menarik U-Haul ke Dallas
A year went by and the baby came along
Setahun berlalu dan bayi itu datang
Then his old friends and the night life came between us
Lalu teman-teman lamanya dan kehidupan malamnya ada di antara kami
Dreams turned into sleepless nights waiting all alone
Mimpi berubah menjadi malam tanpa tidur yang menunggu sendirian
Chorus:
Paduan suara:
I'm staring out the window through these teardrops
Aku menatap ke luar jendela melalui tetesan air mata ini
Holding on to the only dream that turned out right
Berpegang pada satu-satunya impian yang ternyata benar
We're on a Greyhound bus bound for West Virginia
Kami menggunakan bus Greyhound untuk West Virginia
He's in Dallas without us tonight
Dia di Dallas tanpa kita malam ini
Oh, Lord I hate to break the news to mama
Oh, Tuhan, aku benci membubarkan berita itu pada mama
She's gettin on in years and worries so
Dia sudah bertahun-tahun dan khawatir begitu
Maybe I should have stayed in Dallas
Mungkin seharusnya aku menginap di Dallas
And gave him another chance right now I just don't know
Dan memberinya kesempatan lagi sekarang aku tidak tahu
Repeat Chorus
Ulangi chorus
He said I'll make your dreams come true in Texas
Dia bilang aku akan mewujudkan impianmu di Texas
He's in Dallas without us tonight
Dia di Dallas tanpa kita malam ini
