[Verse 1]
She packed her bags at sunrise, soft and slow,
The Texas sky was blushing, didn’t want her to go.
Her boots on the porch left a hollow sound,
And I swear the world tilted when she left this town.
[Prechorus]
She said, “I’ll be back someday,”
But someday feels too far away.
[Chorus]
When she left Texas, the stars dimmed their light,
The prairie winds howled through the loneliest night.
The sun’s been settin’ slower, the bluebonnets don’t bloom,
This heart won’t recover ‘til she walks back in the room.
[Verse 2]
Her laugh used to echo through the mesquite trees,
Now it’s just the silence whispering to me.
The cattle stand still, even they seem to know,
That she took all the warmth when she had to go.
[Prechorus]
The Lone Star’s got no shine,
Since she crossed that state line.
[Chorus]
When she left Texas, the stars dimmed their light,
The prairie winds howled through the loneliest night.
The sun’s been settin’ slower, the bluebonnets don’t bloom,
This heart won’t recover ‘til she walks back in the room.
