Prairie Lullaby

What time is it now in Texas
Here in Tennessee the sun just set
Have you sang your prairie lullaby
And tucked our little one in her bed

Every night once the lights go out
I sort through distant memories
Relive the ones before we came undone
Lose myself in reverie

I'd drive all night just to bring her home
We’d pick up where we left off long ago
Tell me it's just a dream and we're both where we’re supposed to be
And I'll wake up and put myself back to sleep

As the desert moon shines on the hills
Does she know why I had to leave
If I'm just some bedtime story now
Could you leave the ending up to me

What time is it now in Texas
Here in Tennessee the sun just set
This is just some prairie lullaby
A melody, I can't seem to forget
A melody, I can't seem to forget
