The heat rises off the highway my rear view mirror's a blur
You have me spinnin' in circles
Like the dust devils dance in the dirt
But i finally came to my senses
It's time i blew out of this place
'cause you'd stand in the middle of texas
And tell me you needed some space

You'd stand in the middle of texas
In the free and wide open range
Feel like you're hemmed in by fences
Lookin' for someone to blame
Oh, there ain't no changin' you darling
You're too dead set in your ways
'cause you'd stand in the middle of texas
And tell me you needed some space

You can breath just as deep as you want to
You won't have to smell my perfume
When you feel the need you can call me
Like a lonely wolf howls at the moon
But this time i won't come runnin'
It took me a long time to face
That you'd stand in the middle of texas
And tell me you needed some space

You'd stand in the middle of texas
In the free and wide open range
Feel like you're hemmed in by fences
Looking for someone to blame
Oh, there ain't no changing you darlin'
You're too dead set in your ways
'cause you'd stand in the middle of texas
And tell me you needed some space
Oh, there ain't no changing you darlin'
You're too damn set in your ways
'cause you'd stand in the middle of texas
And tell me you needed some space
