So much silence to my hometown streets   Gonna put my cheek to the window and watch it sleep   Where the shadow's fall from sycamore trees   Fight off this north wind and I'll be headin' back east      And let the Colorado river roll on to the sea   I will be crossing it changes   And this 'ole town never did really care   That much for me   I don't know why I always come here   In my dreams      It's the hardest to hold, but it's the easiest to find   If you'll slip for the dollar, I'll fall in the wine   But you cannot save your past for today   It will leave you cold on an outbound train      And let the Colorado river roll on to the sea   I will be crossing it changes   And this 'ole town never did really care   That much for me   I don't know why I always come here   In my dreams      Folded memories in my soul   It's that old blue line that you can never go back home   So I'm waiting for the moon to rise   As it'll kiss my tears away and set my heart in line      And let the Colorado river roll on to the sea   I will be crossing it changes   And this 'ole town never did really care   That much for me   I don't know why I always come here   In my dreams      And let the Colorado river roll on to the sea   I will be crossing it changes   And this 'ole town never did really care   That much for me   I only come here to remember my dreams   Sleep tight   Hill Country town   Goodnight
