I have been restless

I have been reckless

I've been a strain on my mom's heart

I've been a drunk

I've been a dreamer

Pulling the strings on this old guitar

I've found a few answers

I've still got questions

Kept it together and fallen apart

I got secrets and stories

Old shoebox memories

And choices that I'd like to change

Teardrops and laughter

And me chasing after

Years that go as quick as they came

Like a west texas rain

Like a west texas rain

Well I've been a lover

I've been a father

I've been a brother

And I've been a son

Well I've been a preacher

I've been a sinner

If you can name it,

I've probably been one

I'm strong for the struggle

Constantly reaching,

Reaching for something that I've never down

And I got secrets and stories

Old shoebox memories

Choices that I'd like to change

I got teardrops and laughter

And me chasing after

Years that go as quick as they came

Like a west texas rain

Like a west texas rain

So close your eyes and hold on

We're here and we're gone

It goes as quick as it came

Just like a west texas rain

Just like a west texas rain

Just like a west texas rain

Just like a west texas rain
