Tucson Too Soon

(mark nesler/tracy byrd)

Tonight on a plane bound for dallas
I see the bright lights of tucson below
Shining on all of the memories
I thought i'd finally let go
It's been almost a year now
Since i told her i could not stay
And this achin' in my heart that i'm feelin' now
Is the price i guess i'll have to pay

For leavin' tucson too soon
At the time it was something that i just had to do
But tonight face to face with that old desert moon
It seems i left tucson too soon

From thirty-five thousand feet up in the sky
The truth becomes clearer you know
'cause it wasn't till now that i realized
The fool that i was long ago

For leavin' tucson too soon
At the time it was something that i just had to do
But tonight face to face with that old desert moon
It seems i left tucson too soon
It seems i left tucson too soon
