Wide Open Spaces Lyrics

Who doesn't know what I'm talking about

Who's never left home, never struck out

To find a dream and a life of their own

A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone

Many precede and many will follow

A young girl's dream no longer hollow

It takes the shape of a place out west

But what it holds for her, she hasn't yet guessed



<>

She needs wide open spaces

Room to make her big mistakes

She needs new faces

She knows the high stakes



She traveled this road as a child

Wide-eyed and grinning she never tired

But now she won't be coming back with the rest

If these are life's lessons, she'll take this test



<>



As her folks drive away her dad yells, "Check the oil!"

Mom stares out the window and says,

"I'm leaving my girl."

She says "It didn't seem like that long ago

When she stood there and let her own folks know."
