We left Texas on a windy night in a beat up Chevy van
We loaded it up with our innocent dreams and all the love we had
We didn't know then how hard it was livin' on our own
I'd find her crying late at night, talking to the folks back home
I wonder what went wrong; and where is she now I'd love to know
c. I bet Amy's back in Austin working at LaZona Rosa Cafe
I remember the night we lost it and the day she went away
Was it the anger words or did she miss her mama
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet Amy's back in Austin and I'm missing her tonight
Working ten hours in a West Coast sun can make the days so long
And watching the moon crashing into the ocean alone sure gets old
Bridge: Could this desert wind carry me back again
With my heart in my hand; baby I'm missing you
