Miss Texas 1967 Lyrics

in a house
on a hill
by a lake
lives a great mistake
looks a lot like me
looks for company
finds it hard to please
those who love him
i look out on a funny world
at funny people
they come and talk and say they're pleased to meet me
then walk away and say they just don't need me

but my oh my
if i touch the sky
will the clouds roll by
and show me heaven
give me time
and i'll wait in line
if you'll help me find
miss texas 1967

i've got friends
well one or two
but not like you
especially you
could kill me with a kiss
you know my one and only wish
is it look into your eyes
and rise above you
i'm waiting for a magic moment
that never happens
i'm gonna wait until i hear you breathing
you know i'll wait until my heart
stops beating

tell me why
if a bird can fly
and a dog run wild
my arms and legs are tied up tight
through sleepless nights
come and blow my mind
miss texas 1967
but my oh my
if i touch the sky
will the clouds roll by
and show me heaven
give me time
and i'll wait in line
if you'll help me find
miss texas 1967

tell me why
if a bird can fly
and a dog run wild
my arms and legs are tied up tight
through sleepless nights
come and blow my mind
miss texas 1967

in a house
on a hill
by a lake
lives a great mistake
looks a lot like me
