The Only Light Lyrics

Just another Texas bus stop 
Texas never seems to end 
On my seventh cup a' coffee 
Waitress, hit me once again 
Gotta date in Colorado 
With the woman in my life 
I've seen enough of fairgrounds 
An' singin' in the lights  
 
'Cause the only light I wanna see 
Is the light that's in the eyes 
Of the woman waitin' up for me again 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see 
Is a candle in the winda 
An' the open door that she'll be standin' in  
 
Driver says, "It's time, folks" 
So we straggle back on board 
Just me, a nun, two cowboys 
An' a guy in back that snored 
Been twenty-seven hours 
Full a' anything but fun 
An' over my right shoulder 
There's an early-mornin' sun  
 
But the only light I wanna see 
Is the light that's in the eyes 
Of a woman waitin' up for me again 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see 
Is a candle in the winda 
An' the open door that she'll be standin' in  
 
Goin' on forty hours 
An' I've been too long alone 
But it's only just a walk, now 
Up the hill and then I'm home 
I've seen too many bus stops 
An' I've sung my share a' songs 
But the spotlight only matters 
When it's shinin' in my home  
 
'Cause the only light I wanna see 
Is a light that's in the eyes 
Of a woman waitin' up for me again 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see 
Is a candle in the winda 
An' the open door that she'll be standin' in  
 
[Fade out] 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see 
Is the light that's in the eyes 
Of a woman waitin' up for me again 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see 
Is a candle in the winda 
An' the open door that she'll be standin' in  
 
'Cause the only light I wanna see 
Is the light that's in the eyes 
Of the woman waitin' up for me again 
Yeah, the only light I wanna see...
