Lyrics

Moon Over Texas (2011)

Words and music by Ryan Sheeler

VERSE 1
I caught a plane to the next job, watchin' the night go by
Lost my heart waitin' for someone special to arrive
I was holding on to this dying dream that I knew who was best for me
I was chasing my own paradise not knowin' where it'd be

CHORUS

Black skies line my past as I watched the moon over Texas shine
I knew I wouldn't be just flying through another lonely night.
The look in your eyes shook me right out of my wildest dreams
Maybe unanswered prayers are more than they seem

VERSE 2
When I saw you first I knew I'd lay my dreams to rest
Love never needs to speak a word when two hearts connect
If you knew how much I prayed each night, asking God to fill my needs.
True happiness was answered when I got down on my knees.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Suppose I called you from so far away just to say how much I love you
I couldn't wait to say I'm coming home very soon

VERSE 3
People say how God brought them together and how it must've been in the stars
Well I've learned a lot of lessons I know He's led me to where you are
Every day when that moon goes by the more I have to let go
forget about the past mistakes and lean into loving you more
