Lyrics

LEFT MY HOME, MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE
DID ALL I COULD, WAS MY PLAN TO SURVIVE
THE STREETS OF THE CITY CAN BREAK YOU APART
INTO SOO MANY PIECES - RIP OUT YOUR HEART

FROM HOUSTON TO HOUSTON WAS MORE THAN JUST MILES
COULD HAVE BEEN MILLIONS, I WAS WORN FROM MY TRIALS
NOT LOOKING FOR PITY, I'M STRONG AND I'M FREE
NO JUDGE AND NO JURY COULD CRUCIFY ME

HIS WEIGHT OR HIS FATE, SOO CRUEL AND UNKIND
I COULD FEEL IN MY BONES, I'D BE NEXT IN LINE
I MADE MY ESCAPE, GOD KNOWS I TRIED
NOW MY DAYS ONLY NUMBERED BY THE TEARS THAT I CRY

HE LOADED ONE SHELL, LINED UP THE SIGHT
PUT THE GUN TO HIS HEAD - AND TURNED OUT THE LIGHT
NO ANGELS OF MERCY, NO BIRDS ON THE WING
NO WORDS CAN BE SPOKEN - TO LESSEN THE STING

NO LONG GOOD-BYE
I'M MISSING MY BABY TONIGHT
TEXAS GOODNIGHT
GOODNIGHT

NO LONG GOOD-BYE
I'M MISSING MY BABY TONIGHT
TEXAS GOODNIGHT
GOODNIGHT

NO LONG GOOD-BYE
I'M MISSING MY BABY TONIGHT
TEXAS GOODNIGHT
GOODNIGHT
