[Verse]
We were just two kids beneath the moonlight,
Holdin' hands and dreaming 'bout a life so bright.
Talkin' 'bout a house on a hill, not too far,
With love in the air and wishes on a star.
[Verse 2]
But the road we’re on, it’s cracked and worn,
Your sweet words now feel tattered and torn.
I look at the sky, but it don’t seem the same,
This heartache’s a fire I can’t contain.
[Chorus]
We were just holdin' hands, talkin' ‘bout forever,
Thought we’d build a life, weatherin’ storms together.
But now, baby, something don’t feel so right,
‘Cause I’m lonely in East Texas tonight.
[Verse 3]
The pines here whisper those secrets you keep,
And the red dirt roads hold memories deep.
I see your shadow in the light of the moon,
But the warmth of your hug left too soon.
[Bridge]
Maybe it’s me, or maybe you’ve changed,
These dreams we shared feel rearranged.
I’d call you right now, but I don’t hear your name,
Echo the same in love's old flame.
[Chorus]
We were just holdin' hands, talkin' ‘bout forever,
Thought we’d build a life, weatherin’ storms together.
But now, baby, something don’t feel so right,
‘Cause I’m lonely in East Texas tonight.
