Georgia Harmer - Austin lyrics

Went to Austin, Texas for a day
To everyone I saw, I said your name
The setting sun, the hot wind on my face
Felt like home, an unfamiliar place

We were cowboys in another life
But I am you, your other life is mine
Often when I speak to you, I cry
Never can explain the reason why
Never understood the reason
Late at night there is a fire on
All my life, around it singing songs

When you were far away when I was young
Sitting on the front step on the phone
Look up at the moon, my love
Above me is the very same one
You and I, the same one

The streets of Laredo sing me
To sleep at night
Your first baby, did you really cry
Tough and strong but soft around the eyes
I hope I laugh enough to have those lines

I’ll go back to Austin soon, I hope
I’ll see you in the heat and in the smoke
On the road and playing just like you
I’ll bring you back some Texas BBQ
