Cadillac Young - Love Lost At A Truck Stop In Texas Lyrics

Met this gal and took her home with me
Yeah, she told me her whole life story
She took off in the night while I was still sleeping
She was states away by the next morning
She took my wallet and a ring my mama left me
I guess it got her where she was going
She found her fix in the darkest shadows in a bathroom in El Paso
They found her body early Christmas Day
I remember it was snowing
I remember it was snowing
And they said"Jane Doe"
You could have had it better
But the path you chose didn't brace you for stormy weather
You were drowning slow
Luckily our bodies bodies were made to float
But you just kept poking holes in your skin
And yet you still wonder just what made you sink
I got a call from an angry sheriff
He said he had a mess of questions
Who's this"Jane" and why's she holding my belongings
I just hung up and left him guessing
And the papers read"Jane Doe"
I'll never truly know your love
But the path we chose or was it chosen for us
By the powers that are higher than
You could ever dream to be
You held the weight of the world in your heart and hands
We held our breaths and looked away as you sank
I remember it was snowing
I remember it was snowing
I remember it was snowing
I remember it was snowing that Christmas Day
