Intro A cup of coffee with the first sun light At a last chance Texaco I'm thrumbing through a worn out roadmap ( Trying to decide which way to go ( These empty miles that are memory They just seem to linger on ( She left me on this lost highway ( Wondering why and where she'd gone ( That's how a cowgirl breaks a young man heart That's how my whole world slowly came apart ( With a cold and empty stare ( As if I wasn't even there () She didn't even stop to cry That's how a cowgirl says goodbye ending: I guess that's how a cowgirl says goodbye lead Called up her mom down in abolene just to find out how she fared ( She said she stopped a while in San Antone ( spent some time with an old friend ( with all this distance in between us I'm sure I never cross her mind ( And it may take all these roads ahead ( just to leave it all behind chorus, chorus
