Heartbreak, TX Lyrics

One day's ride from Louisiana

Just north of the sea

Lies a town called Heartbreak, Texas

I should have believed

She was like a fire in darkness

I ran towards the flames

One full night of burning passion

Then she spoke her name

I said Heartbreak's no place for a cowboy

So I'm riding out with the wind

I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake

Now I won't see Heartbreak again

Her cries they follow me like shadows

Her wrath like a chain

I still feel that loathsome sorrow

When she cursed my name

On forgotten roads you'll find me

In fear of her claim

Saddled up, forever riding

In tears since the day when I said

Heartbreak's no place for a cowboy

So I'm riding out with the wind

I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake

Now I won't see Heartbreak again

No, heartbreak's no place for a cowboy

So I'm riding out with the wind

I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake

Now I won't see Heartbreak again
