Lyric The Only Light

(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...
