Wichita Falls Woman
[Verse 1]
There's a rainbow painted on a sky of denim blue
The sign says Wichita Falls, Texas twenty-two
Heat rising off the highway reminds me
Of that hot mid-summer day I first saw her face
[Verse 2]
She was the kind of woman I could ever hold
And looking back I guess maybe I should've known
But if only for a moment it was worth the chance
That I took with my heart there in her arms
[Chorus]
There's a lot of things that if I could
I'd change about my past
Tear that page out of my memory
Walk away and not look back
There's times I should have stood my ground
And times I should have run
Yeah I'll have regrets when my life's said and done
But that Wichita Falls woman won't be one
[Verse 3]
I sip my cup of coffee, staring at a map
In an all-night diner waiting for the storm to pass
And every rain drop on the window reminds me
Of that cold December dawn I found her gone
[Verse 4]
And that old familiar feeling washes over me
Like a homesick sailor longing for the open sea
And I'm content to let it take me to a place back in my memory
When it calls, Wichita Falls
[Chorus]
There's a lot of things that if I could
I'd change about my past
Tear that page out of my memory
Walk away and not look back
There's times I should have stood my ground
And times I should have run
Yeah I'll have regrets when my life's said and done
But that Wichita Falls woman won't be one
[Tag]
Can't say that I won't have regrets when my life's said and done
But that Wichita Falls woman won't be one
