Steve Hackett - Big Dallas Sky lyrics

In all those deserted farms I searched for you In the driving rain most nights feeling like a ghost Moving unseen and through every street of dreams Then I saw you one day laughing under that big Dallas sky After you went away I thought I'd never see your face again Ships that pa** in the night Thought I'd make my way up north, go get a steady job Work with my hands if the occasion called But the West Texas wind Kept calling me back Through China-town and up the East River To that big Dallas sky I knew I'd find you in a bar some place Pretending you never knew the stranger at the door But the other customers were wise to that game I knew you'd come running sooner or later But not because of my sweet longing arms And not because of the way I held you that night
