Adios Texas, para ella... getting tired of useless desires.. lyrics by patty griffin

Say goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway
And different colored doorways you thought would let you in one day
Goodbye to the old bus stop frozen and waiting
Weekend addition has this town way overrated

Walk across the baseball green the grass has turned to straw
A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, old friend, I can't make you stay
I can't spend another ten years wishing you would anyway

How the sky turns to fire
Against the telephone wire
And even I'm getting tired
Of useless desires



Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty train

Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, old friend, you won't be seeing me again
Goodbye to all the window panes shining in the sun
Like diamonds on a winter day, goodbye, goodbye to everyone

How the sky turns to fire
Against the telephone wire
It burns the last of the day down
And I'm the last one hanging around
Waiting on a train track
And the train never comes back
And even I'm getting tired
Of useless desires
