SINGER: Steve Hackett

SONG:Big Dallas Sky

In all those deserted farms i searched for you
in the driving rain most nights feeling like a ghost
moving unseen and through every street of dreams
then i saw you one day laughing under that big dallas sky
After you went away i thought i?d never see your face again
ships that pass in the night
thought i?d make my way up north, go get a steady job
work with my hands if the occasion called
But the west texas wind
kept calling me back
through china-town and up the east river
to that big dallas sky
I knew i?d find you in a bar some place
pretending you never knew the stranger at the door
but the other customers were wise to that game
i knew you?d come running sooner or later
But not because of my sweet longing arms
and not because of the way i held you that night
But because of that big dallas sky
