You called west a dream come true
All you ever gave me was a look at some old highway
A wedding ring and a simple thing called home
And you said it ain’t no fun
A finger on what happened
There’d be no strings, no playing games
All I ever wanted was a baby in my arms
Then one week it got the best of you
Swore if this day ever came
I remember when you told me
When somewhere down the road, it slipped away
But I hope you don’t feel guilty
All you ever gave me was a look at some old highway
And I won’t bring a child into a world between roses
When love is gone why try to put
The sky above and the love of a Rolling Stone
On a path lying in that Oklahoma sun
A wedding ring and a simple thing called home
And the one more thing that happened on the way
And you didn’t need another hungry mouth to feed
One day you may miss me
Misty eyes and sad goodbyes to say
But inside me there’s a second little heartbeat that goes with me
And the thorn and the side of a tumbling tumbleweed
Go chase the sun until your dying day
That you’d always be a drifting man
All I ever wanted was a baby in my arms
