I know the stars are bright above that little Texas town
I bet I'm nowhere near her mind right now
Oh, but I can't say the same
It's been thundering and raining
I'm so full of all this liquor
And I'm drowning in this pain
I'm wondering why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everything was fine out here in Nashville, Tennessee
We went from chasing Amarillo
Now I'm chasing memories
I'm wondering why did you take her from me?
Go on
If I could see the ocean, I would pour it on my head
Float around this desert like a possum playing dead
Maybe I would love you a little more







I could drift back to her heart and find a bed
Maybe she'll forget last night and everything I said
I'm wondering why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everything was fine out on a beach here in Maui
We went from chasing Amarillo, now I'm chasing memories
I'm wondering why did you take her from me?
Come on, play something
Oh, why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everything was perfect out here in Nashville, Tennessee
We went from chasing Amarillo
Now I'm chasing memories
I'm wondering why did you take her?
Roll my heart right up and break it
Yeah, why did you take her from me?
