Take me back to Austin
So I can get lost in
These memories this haunt me of you
I know that you miss me
I know it's not the whiskey
'Cause my tongue is dry, and I'm feeling that too

It's times like this
One drink would ease
What's killing me inside
Stuck in west
We did our best
At least we know we tried

Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I shouldn't have let you go
Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I'll never let you go

Take me back to Austin
Back to the apartment
What I'll call my second home with you
Heartache perfected
I guess that was expected
After six whole years of loving you

It's times like these
One drink would ease
What's killing me inside
Stuck out west
We did our best
At least we know we tried

Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I shouldn't have let you go
Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I'll never let you

What's meant to be will set me free
Allow, I won't forget
I'll never know if I let go
If my safest bed

Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I shouldn't have let you go
Texas knows
I'll never let you know
I'll never let you go
