Left my heart in Amarillo
Hit the road before the dawn
Chasin' dreams in broken dive bars
Where my name is barely known
With every note and every chorus
Every mile that I've been crossin'
'Til that fateful tear-stained mornin'
Somewhere south of Austin
Dusty boots on empty highways
Tears dried by the Texas sun
Lost amid the neon bar lights
Wondered where our love went wrong
Called you up in San Antonio
Heard the hurtin' in your voice
Guess we ain't what we once dreamed of
Didn't leave me any choice
South of Austin
Where the heartache hit the hardest
A love story in the rearview
Nothin' but a faded artist
With my guitar case of memories
And a song that's half-forgotten
I'm just a singer on the road to nowhere
Somewhere south of Austin
Played my soul out in a roadhouse
Where the trucks all pass the night
In the shadows of a past life
I can see our love's last fight
With each strum, the pain grows distant
Though the miles make feelin's real
Still, I wonder if you miss me
And if time will ever heal
South of Austin
Where the heartache hit the hardest
A love story in the rearview
Nothin' but a faded artist
With my guitar case of memories
And a song that's half-forgotten
I'm just a singer on the road to nowhere
Somewhere south of Austin
South of Austin
Stars were fallin'
Dreams unravelin' at the seams
Left behind a bittersweet goodbye
Strummed as melodies on strings
In those moments, I felt broken
'Neath the wide and empty sky
Movin' on was never easy
Now I sing the reasons why
South of Austin
Where the heartache hit the hardest
A love story in the rearview
Nothin' but a faded artist
With my guitar case of memories
And a song that's half-forgotten
I'm just a singer on the road to nowhere
Somewhere south of Austin
