I wish I could carry on and be on my way.
But the burning in my heart won't fade away.
The way that you are won't let me forget.
You are as colorful as a West Texas Sunset.

You're always on the move and can't stand still.
You are never satisfied and can't get your fill.
But loving you is something that I'll never regret.
The colors of my heart bleed like a West Texas Sunset.

I don't even know where you are this very day.
But my love for you will never completely fade away.
There is only one you more that I'll ever expect.
And my heart stretches further than a West Texas Sunset.

I know you're riding on a horse with your long dark hair.
You will always keep riding until you reach the thin air.
The pieces of my broken heart I will gather and collect.
And my horizon will be wider than a West Texas Sunset.
