Written by Mark Nesler and Tracy Byrd >From the "Big love" CD INTRO: Tonight on a plane bound for Dallas I see the bright lights of Tucson below Shining on all of the memories I thought I'd finally let go It's been almost a year now Since I told her I could not stay And this achin' in my heart that I' m feeling now Is the price I guess I'll have to pay CHORUS: For leaving Tucson too soon At the time it was something that I just had to do But tonight face to face with that old desert moon It seems I left Tucson too soon INTRO >From thirty five thousand feet up in the sky The truth becomes clearer you know 'Cause it wasn't 'till now that I realized The fool that I was long ago CHORUS It seems I left Tucson too soon
