Shining on all of the memories
From thirty-five thousand feet up in the sky
And this achin' in my heart that I'm feelin' now
For leavin' Tucson too soon
It seems I left Tucson too soon
At the time it was something that I just had to do
It seems I left Tucson too soon
I thought I'd finally let go
Since I told her I could not stay
But tonight, face to face, with that old desert moon
But tonight, face to face, with that old desert moon
Is the price, I guess, I'll have to pay
It's been almost a year now
It seems I left Tucson too soon
The fool that I was long ago
'Cause it wasn't till now that I realized
The truth becomes clearer, you know
For leavin' Tucson too soon
At the time it was something that I just had to do
