Westphalia Texas Waltz

Lyrics by: Mickey Newbury



He said to her "My little darlin',

You're as lovely as I did recall,

and her eyes brightly sparkled like diamonds,

as her tears started slowly to fall.



Oh yes I can clearly remember,

he said with a slow Texas drawl,

and she smiled as she softly surrendered,

to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz.



Instrumental till key change up:



He stood as the sun in the mornin',

rose up on Wichita Falls,

and there in the dim light she watched,

as he sauntered on off down the hall,



Oh yes I can clearly remember,

he said with a slow Texas drawl,

and she smiled as she softly surrendered,

to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz,



Instrumental till final verse:



Oh yes I can clearly remember,

that night and San Antone Rose,

she smiled as she softly surrendered,

to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz.
