Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The sun is setting on this dusty road,
In my heart, I'm feeling a heavy load.
Just packed my bags, time to hit the show,
With a bittersweet smile, I'm ready to go.
He promised me the stars, then turned out the light,
Now I'm trading in heartache for a brand new flight.
This Texas girl ain't gonna take no more,
I'm walking away, headed out the door.
[Chorus]
Texas, let 'em go, just let 'em fly,
Time to dance under the open sky.
Goodbye to the tears and the lonely nights,
I'm taking my heart on a Texas ride.
Let 'em go, let 'em run,
Ain't no more crying, I'm finally done.
With my boots on the ground and my spirit high,
This Texas girl is saying goodbye.
[Verse 2]
We rode down the highway, his hand in mine,
Thought I found love, but he crossed that line.
Said he'd be my rock, but turned into stone,
Now it's time to claim what's mine alone.
With every mile, I'm shedding this weight,
Found my courage, I'm sealing my fate.
Dust in the rearview, so far behind,
I'm learning to live, gotta free my mind.
[Chorus]
Texas, let 'em go, just let 'em fly,
Time to dance under the open sky.
Goodbye to the tears and the lonely nights,
I'm taking my heart on a Texas ride.
Let 'em go, let 'em run,
Ain't no more crying, I'm finally done.
With my boots on the ground and my spirit high,
This Texas girl is saying goodbye.
[Bridge]
Got my truck and my tunes, I'm feeling alive,
Chasing sunsets, I'm ready to thrive.
Ain't lookin' back -- my heart's in control,
In this big ol' state, finally finding my soul.
[Chorus]
Texas, let 'em go, just let 'em fly,
Time to dance under the open sky.
Goodbye to the tears and the lonely nights,
I'm taking my heart on a Texas ride.
Let 'em go, let 'em run,
Ain't no more crying, I'm finally done.
With my boots on the ground and my spirit high,
This Texas girl is saying goodbye.
[Outro]
So here's to the future, I'm ready to shine,
In the heart of Texas, I'm feeling so fine.
With every step forward, I'm finally whole,
Texas, let 'em go -- I'm takin' back my soul.
