Dallas - Caitlin Rose

Ocean of stars

Why’ve I gone so far?

I miss my home

I hear those engines drone

The runway is set

Let’s move this fucking jet

I have to go

Despite all sleet and snow

Just a late night horse leaving Dallas

With a portrait hung in velvet

Just a three night run at the palace

And I never in my life felt so alone

I worked for the show

Stars would come and go

I’d work the lights

I even swept some nights

But now I’m host

That’s worthy of a toast

Don’t you agree, my little honey bee?

Just a late-night king leaving Dallas

With a portrait hung in velvet

Just a three-night-run at the palace

I’ll be at 17th and Broadway by tonight

So far away from all these wonders

Even as the roulette spins

I was a escorted 17 miles

I came upon All Winds Bend

Even in dreams of life still you call

Through the tall grass and the weeds

I know I’ll never be the same on this road

To Calgary

Just a late night horse leaving Dallas

With a portrait hung in velvet

Just a three night run at the palace

And I never in my life felt so alone

And I never in my life felt so alone
