Parted Ways

And then wind that tore all through the atmosphere

And the air, it filled with dust

Searching for a connection, I went in every direction

Some places I've already been

And, oh, with lost love and loneliness

So many things have changed

And, oh, I just don't look at things the same way now

Since we parted ways

Out in this space, I'm a long way from home

The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on

To a wide open space to breathe in

Oh, I needed a wide open place to breathe in, oh

And the sun went down over this little ghost town

Near the valley of the Rio Grande

I needed a little bit of whiskey and a little bit of time

To ease my troubled mind

And, oh, with lost love and loneliness

So many things have changed

And, oh, I just don't look at things the same way now

Since we parted ways

Out in this space, I'm a long way from home

The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on

To a wide open space to breathe in, oh

To a wide open space to breathe in, oh

Out in the space, I'm a long way from home

The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on

To a wide open space to breathe in, oh

To a wide open space to breathe in, oh

To a wide open space to breathe in, oh

Gotta get on over, just got to get it out

Out if I want to be free

I'm moving on, it takes a lot

So much of my energy

I'm going around and I have found

I know this is the reason that's bringing me down

It takes a lot, takes a lot

Takes a lot, takes a lot, ooh
