She came from
Fort Worth
But Fort Worth
Couldn't hold her
Her dreams were
Bigger than
The Texas sky
She's got a
One-way ticket
On the next bus
For Boulder
And it won't take long
To say good bye
She was workin'
At a diner
Just a week ago
When a man from
Colorado
Smiled and said hello
And he turned her head
With stories
About a cabin
In the trees
Where the wind can
Sing you love songs
Beneath snow-capped
Mountain peaks
Now she's packed
Her faded blue jeans
And her favorite
Cowboy boots
Left her apron
At the diner
For someone else
To use
One last look
In the mirror
At the girl
She used to be
Then the driver
Takes her ticket
And she tries to
Fall asleep
She came from
Fort Worth
But Fort Worth
Couldn't hold her
Her dreams were
Bigger than
The Texas sky
She's got a
One-way ticket
On the next bus
For Boulder
And it won't take long
To say good bye
And somewhere
In the long dark night
The snow began to fall
Oh the world outside
Was sparklin' white
When she heard
The driver
Everyone off now
For Boulder
And have
A real nice day
He was waitin'
On the platform
And he raised
His hand to wave
And she offered
No resistance
As he took her
To his cabin
And that diner
In the distance
Seemed just like
It never happened
She came from
Fort Worth
But Fort Worth
Couldn't hold her
Her dreams were
Bigger than
The Texas sky
She's got a
One-way ticket
On the next bus
For Boulder
And it won't take long
To say good bye
She's got a
One-way ticket
On the next bus
For Boulder
And it won't take long
To say good bye
Bye bye
