Alone In Valentine

In a beat up Silverado
Through southern Colorado
She'll be on the interstate
'Til sometime late tomorrow
All she's left behind
Is their life there in the pines
Took the pieces of her broken heart
To try and build a better life
All the words left unsaid
All the many miles ahead
On some highway far away
She'll find a place to pray
And ask the lord for strength from up on high
Headed for tomorrow, in that beat up Silverado
She'll find her way to finally say goodbye
Standing there at night
Lost in the Marfa lights
Tequila in the evening
Alone in Valentine
A movie at the Starlight
A drive down River Road
The Eagles' "Desperado," playing on the radio
All the words left unsaid
All the many miles ahead
On some highway far away
She'll find a place to pray
And ask the lord for strength from up on high
Headed for tomorrow, in that beat up Silverado
She'll find her way to finally say goodbye
Those ashes in her hand
On the banks of the Rio Grande
A warm Texas wind
To take him home again
Across that Great Divide
She says her last goodbye
Her hands on the wheel
Tears in her eyes
In his beat up Silverado
Through southern Colorado
