Stand In The Middle Of Texas - Trick Pony

The heat rises off of the highway

My rear-view mirror’s a blur

You had me spinnin' in circles

Like the dust devils dance in the dirt

But I fin’lly came to my senses

It’s time I blew out of this place

'Cause you’d stand in the middle of Texas

An' tell me you needed some space

You’d stand in the middle of Texas

Oh, in the free an' the wide open range

An' feel like you’re hemmed in by fences

An' lookin' for someone to blame

Oh, there ain’t no changin' you, darlin'

You’re too dead set in your ways

'Cause you’d stand in the middle of Texas

An' tell me you needed some space

Now 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 the 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

An' tell me you needed some space

You’d stand in the middle of Texas

In the free an' the wide open range

An' feel like you’re hemmed in by fences

An' lookin' for someone to blame

Oh, there ain’t no changin' you, darlin'

Well, you’re too dead set in your ways

'Cause you’d stand in the middle of Texas

An' tell me you needed some space

Oh, there ain’t no changin' you, darlin'

Well, you’re too damned set in your ways

'Cause you’d stand in the middle of Texas

An' tell me you needed some space
