On the window sill of an empty hotel room
Staring out across the city I'm thinking of a rendezvous
And these northern lights burn bright but there's a lone star in sight:
My lady waits beneath that Texas moon
Texas moon shine down on this cowboy
Somewhere between Detroit and San Antonio
Another 14 hours and she'll take away this blues
Underneath this big ol' Texas moon
With every miles the highway lines get longer
Countin' stars out on the prairie I can almost feel her touch
How I long to lay beside her I think my heart's on fire
Oh Texas moon take me home she's the one I love
Texas moon shine down on this cowboy
Somewhere between Detroit and San Antonio
Another 14 hours and she'll love away my blues
Somewhere 'neath this big ol' Texas moon
