The Only Light — текст песни (C.W. Mccall)

(Walt Meskell, Tim Martin)

Just another Texas bus stop
Texas never seems to end
On my seventh cup a` coffee
Waitress, hit me once again
Gotta date in Colorado
With the woman in my life
I`ve seen enough of fairgrounds
An` singin` in the lights

`Cause the only light I wanna see
Is the light that`s in the eyes
Of the woman waitin` up for me again
Yeah, the only light I wanna see
Is a candle in the winda
An` the open door that she`ll be standin` in

Driver says, "It`s time, folks"
So we straggle back on board
Just me, a nun, two cowboys
An` a guy in back that snored
Been twenty-seven hours
Full a` anything but fun
An` over my right shoulder
There`s an early-mornin` sun

But the only light I wanna see
Is the light that`s in the eyes
Of a woman waitin` up for me again
Yeah, the only light I wanna see
Is a candle in the winda
An` the open door that she`ll be standin` in

Goin` on forty hours
An` I`ve been too long alone
But it`s only just a walk, now
Up the hill and then I`m home
I`ve seen too many bus stops
An` I`ve sung my share a` songs
But the spotlight only matters
When it`s shinin` in my home

`Cause the only light I wanna see
Is a light that`s in the eyes
Of a woman waitin` up for me again
Yeah, the only light I wanna see
Is a candle in the winda
An` the open door that she`ll be standin` in

[Fade out]
Yeah, the only light I wanna see
Is the light that`s in the eyes
Of a woman waitin` up for me again
Yeah, the only light I wanna see
Is a candle in the winda
An` the open door that she`ll be standin` in

`Cause the only light I wanna see
Is the light that`s in the eyes
Of the woman waitin` up for me again
Yeah, the only light I wanna see...
