Amarillo

The time has come
You're really leavin'
You always told me that
you wanted to
I guess I never thought
It would happen
I guess I never really wanted it to
The world is calling you and
You must answer
But you can take me with you
In your dreams


If you ever get to back to Amarillo
In a shiny new car or
Worn out shoes
If you ever get back to Amarillo
I'll be waitin' for you


Your sister told me you were workin'
At some office out in Tinsel Town
Don't forget bout those who love
They'll be there for you if you get down
I believe in you and all you're after
I hope you end up where you want to be


If you ever get to back to Amarillo
In a shiny new car or
Worn out shoes
If you ever get back to Amarillo
I'll be waitin' for you


Thirty years now have gone by quickly
I still think of you from time to time
My wife died early, I've got children
I'm happy and My health is fine
I often wondered if you found your freedom
I sometimes wonder if should have gone


If you ever get to back to Amarillo
In a shiny new car or
Worn out shoes
If you ever get back to Amarillo
I'll be waitin' for you
