Too Far from Texas - 2023 Remaster

There's a plane, it's headed for London
24 hours more and he'll be on it
And I can't show my love, and I can't stop it
Ooh, I can't stop it

There's a house there, somebody's waiting
Somebody else's arms will wrap around him
And in that moment, what will he think then?
When I can't touch him

Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know, is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

In a room just outside of Houston
That's where I spend my nights trying to get through to him
He says he's comin' back in every letter
But he might never
No, he might never

Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

Does he know how long I've waited for this love to come?
Does he know I'm holdin' on?
And that won't change, no matter where he's gone

Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

Couldn't I, couldn't I wait?
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay one more day?
Couldn't I, couldn't I wait?
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay one more day?
