Waltz Across Texas Tonight Lyrics - Wrecking Ball - Emmylou Harris

(Rodney Crowell/Emmylou Harris) 

The wind can blow cold, it moans and it cries 

When it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyes 

But if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plain 

You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name. 

You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name. 

You've been on a road that just don't seem to end 

Where that broken old heart of yours won't ever mend 

You've crossed over bridges and bridges they burn 

So many rivers and so much to learn. 

So many bridges and so much to learn.

But the moon is so full, the stars are so bright 

And my hand is steady, my touch is light 

Look in my eyes, hold on real tight 

And I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight. 

I'll waltz you my darling across Texas tonight. 

We both have known hard luck 

And love that's gone wrong 

When the ghosts take the shadows and 

The night takes too long 

We folded our cards when the hand wasn't strong 

But that wheel will keep spinning long after we're gone 

Yeah, that wheel will keep spinning long after we're gone. 

And the moon is so full, the stars are so bright 

And my hand is steady, my touch is light 

Look in my eyes, hold on real tight and I'll 

Waltz you my darling across Texas tonight.
