Closer

Out here on the prairie Wishing you were close to me Sure as the cold wind blows these stones In east Wyoming As far as the crow can fly I've probably been there But right now, honey, I'm just Wishing you were close to me Running in and out of luck Am I moving up or getting stuck? Close to me Clear as the ear can reach, I hear you whispering Live it up in the land of milk and honey Strumming chords, making friends, rolling J's, ha And losing money Running in and out of luck Hauling in a pickup truck All the wheels are falling off Guess I'll give it one more shot Wishing you were close to me It was good to know ya Signed waterlogged from Minnesota The sun sets hard, real hard In Odessa I'm not sure what's left of us, but as for me I'm headed straight to Texas It's about damn time, honey That I was close to you Closer, closer to me Closer, closer to me Closer, closer to me Closer, closer to me
