So you went back to Texas You're probably in Gainesville tonight Or maybe already in Austin While I've been here drinking since five It's just a few hundred miles Oh, what's a few hundred miles? And I wish there were highways To lead me straight to your heart And I don't know what happens next Lord I don't know just what happens next I'm just sitting here, smoking And hoping for the best And I can't really call you mine But there was something there that night That makes you linger around in my mind That makes my heart a heavy heart It's just a few hundred miles Oh what's a few hundred miles? And I don't know what happens next Lord I don't know just what happens next I'm just sittin' here hoping for the best Lighting my nineteenth cigarette While the lights went on in the park It gets so beautiful here after dark With them neon lights and the slow passing cars Tell me is Texas really all that far? Oh, is Texas really all that far? And I don't know what happens next Lord I don't know just what happens next I'm just sitting here, smoking And hoping for the best And I wish there were highways To lead me straight to your heart
