about

This song was half finished in Burnaby B.C. and finished somewhere between Fort Worth and Houston, Texas, during a road trip in 2012. The moral of the story is long distance relationships don't work, unless you're over 60 and have nothing else going on. But I was 27 at the time, so it didn't work.

lyrics

MEET ME IN TEXAS

Meet me in Texas in the middle of May
I'll be in Houston counting the days
Until, my love, we're together again
And our lonely hearts can at last mend

Too gone too long is no way to be
It's hard for love to grow with an ocean between
You in your world, me in mine
We keep trying to make our love light shine

Maybe too much time has passed
Maybe I've been living too fast
Maybe I did not try enough
'Cause now I'm in Texas, blue as the sky above
Now I'm in Texas, blue as the sky above.
