Running with the devil on a railway line
Same old story at a different time
Lonely is the man low on gin and smokes
Thinking "Getting what I wanted wasn't worth my soul"So I'm going back to Houston
In my heart and in my mind
Thinking about what you said when I left it all behind
Losing don't mean nothing when there's nothing to lose
Living isn't living when I'm missing youMiles from a lover make a heart grow strong
Well, I was weak and the road was long
Took a little time but I'm coming around
And I'm thinking about pointing my headlights southSo I'm going back to Houston
In my heart and in my mind
Thinking about what you said when I left it all behind
Losing don't mean nothing when there's nothing to lose
Living isn't living when I'm missing youPacking my bag at the old turnpike
Trading this inn for the snow outside
And if these weathered feet never reach their home
Go on, bury me deep where the ground is coldBury me in Houston
Where I left my love behind
Thinking 'bout what you said when I crossed that county line
Losing don't mean nothing when there's nothing to lose
Living isn't living when I'm missing youLosing don't mean nothing when there's nothing to lose
Living isn't living when I'm missing you
