Texas Billie
Blue Billie swore she'd never lose the bet with her life She packed her bags at twenty, left her memories behind Though were the memories of a girl that usually smiled But now there's wrinkles round Blue Billie's eyes She can afford now just a grown-old sight Blue Billie joined the band playing night over night Found people in the clubs tear their dreams all apart When money came the stage became her paradise She left her boy just to become a star So she busted out of that misery Her old piano gave her everything she needed But success erased her hometown with a blow Thought of having found the right place to call home In the audience applause
Can't you feel a little cold around? Slammed the door in front of past and now? Can't you feel a little empty around? If you can't buy with all your money one new home
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Blue Billie hid her shyness behind sunglasses too black Forgot how good it'd been watching skies right on face Hearing the echoing words from the valley below Swearing to Tom “I'll never let you go” Waiting for better days and finding them already gone So she realized the place she's coming from Could never be replaced by any city's smoke And her piano let her go
Can't you feel a little cold around? Slammed the door in front of past and now? Can't you feel a little empty 'round? If you can't buy with all your money one new hometown
Blue Billie married Tom in 1989 She's got a little boy, maybe he'll play the guitar At night she stands upon her own windowsill She still can hear that piano on the cliff as she turns away
