I feel as if I'm, on a ledge and I just, pushed myself out of time
In the, lights of the city below, me there I see it, I wanna hold it in my hands
But the lights bring me back down to the, ground where you're standing
(I can't) see the forest for the trees
And the clock is ticking away, my hands are bound tied, I can't hear a word you say
I think of Oklahoma, and the time we shared
You showed me what I needed, you showed me someone cared
What will I be when; I'm dead and gone, I wanna be remembered then
I know that my time is short here, there's no way to change it, so why do I have all of these fears?
Fears that, I'll not leave a mark, not change a heart, I'll leave my name inside the bark
Of a, tree in that small town, of Oklahoma, so then maybe I'll be found
I think of Oklahoma, and the time we shared
You showed what I needed, showed me someone cared
I think of Oklahoma, those nights I lie in bed
I never got to thank you, for all that you did
