?[00:18.32]Desert night under lonely stars
[00:22.03]Crusing down the highway takes me farther from home
[00:26.55]Whiskey and regret
[00:30.32]Neither can erase the fact that I have done wrong
[00:34.87]So now I'm on the run
[00:39.18]The law is on my trail
[00:43.08]Let down the only girl that ever seemed to be the one for me
[00:47.86]So now I wander alone
[00:50.45]
[01:17.61]Alone in a cheap motel room
[01:22.82]Praying to the Lord above
[01:26.73]Burden of the past rests so heavy on my shoulders
[01:30.98]My conscience carries the weight of blood
[01:35.19]Cigarette smoke and shadow
[01:39.49]A neon cactus in the night
[01:43.77]Did what I did because I thought that I had no choice
[01:48.42]But there's always another way
[01:51.14]Oh I look to the moon and stars
[01:56.74]Somewhere underneath them she's there
[02:01.10]Never spoke the words of love I hid in my heart
[02:04.86]If she heard them now would she still care
[02:09.69]Wonder if she's thinking of me
[02:13.96]Does she hate me for what I've done
[02:18.14]How I wish that I could change everything and go back
[02:22.66]Now that my last chance is gone it's gone
[02:26.58]
[03:01.40]Moon will you tell her for me
[03:05.42]I'm sorry for all the trouble that I've caused
[03:09.81]If only I could find a way to return to her someday
[03:13.83]For I long to hold her in my arms
[03:18.50]But I fear that I'm not long for this world
[03:22.56]Because I will not go out without a fight
[03:27.33]I'm running forever and if they should catch me
[03:31.40]One last thought of her before my gun is fired
[03:35.19]
