A light shines from my window

Just can't sleep no more

Lord it hurts so much to be alone

But the real men never do admit

It's them that might be wrong

At least that's what he told me in his song



He rode all the way to Texas on an old freight train

Didn't miss the girl he left behind

He rode all the way to Texas

Didn't shed a tear

He's letting you know that he's the moving kind



The freedom that he sings about

I guess I'll never know

Just can't shake the guilt or kill the pain

But he lets me ride when the lights turn low

Get on board the radio and take a ride to Texas on his train



He rode all the way to Texas on an old freight train

Didn't miss the girl he left behind

He rode all the way to Texas

Didn't shed a tear

Letting you know that he's the moving kind

He's letting you know that he's the moving kind
