Clint Gray

Ottumwa, Iowa

Lone Star Night

A true warm breeze
from the South Texas blue
Brings back the hue
Of colors in my rainbow

Taking away the pain
On the Wind
As a tropic love song plays
Like a current on the bay waters

I have left my heart
North of here, south of there
And everywhere in between the oceans

A new romance
She whispered beautiful Mexican
Into my mind

A silver bracelet slid softly down her arm
As she brought up her hand
And grazed the back of it
Across my lonely face

And then I saw that lone star
Shining in her eyes
I saw where I'll be leaving my heart next
