Lyrics

[Verse 1] She don't see no way around it He shows every sign of leaving her behind After three days staying out late It don't look like he'll be coming home tonight She wants to cry but pride won't let her She'll find better things to do Leaves her key inside the mailbox With a note that tells that cowboy where to go It's a two day drive to Denver With a U-Haul if she doesn't take it slow She wants to cry but pride won't let her She'll find better things to do [Chorus] Don't let Dallas see you crying She reminds herself as she rolls out of town When she hits that Texas border she sets pride aside And lets her tears come down Then she cries all the way to Colorado Because it hurts like the devil to be free [Verse 2] Cuts her hair and finds a new job And her friends all tell her girl you're doing fine Still the nights get cold and lonely When that wild west Texas cowboy haunts her mind She wants to cry but pride won't let her She'll find better things to do [Chorus] Don't let Dallas see you crying She reminds herself as she rolls out of town When she hits that Texas border she sets pride aside And lets her tears come down Then she cries all the way to Colorado Because it hurts like the devil to be free
