This is an insight into an old timers experience as he sits alone in a bar in Texas. He recognisnes that with age he feels more and more distant from the man he once was. He is becoming more forgetful saying that he feels "one thousand miles from Texas with snow falling in my mind". He would also like to see "the sunrise on a Texas Sunday morning", the way he remembered it from so many years ago.

Lyrics:

Someday when you are old and grey

Maybe you will feel the same

as the light shines dimly on the

Grainy windows and dusty floors of the bar

One man sits beside his drink

Looks up and gives friendly wink

As the light shines dimly on his face. You can see

he’s been to places near and far.

He said I’m one thousand miles from Texas

With snow falling in my mind

One thousand miles from Texas

It’s all down to women and wine

I wanna see the sunrise on a Texas morning

See the sunrise on a Texas Sunday morning.

Falling through the age of man

Life ends where it all began

Where a light can shine brightly in the hardest heart

And reaches the centre of the soul

One man sits alone and stares

Looks back at all his love affairs

And he smiles to himself no point in trying

To dig deeper in a hole.

He said I’m one thousand miles from Texas

With snow falling in my mind

One thousand miles from Texas

It’s all down to women and wine

I wanna see the sunrise on a Texas morning

see the sunrise on a Texas morning

See the sunrise on a Texas Sunday morning.

Outro:

I wanna see the sunrise on a Texas morning

See the sunrise on a Texas Sunday morning.

I wanna see the sunrise on a Texas morning

See the sunrise on a Texas Sunday morning.
