Alamo - Hal Ketchum

[00:14.31]In front of the Alamo
[00:16.61]in the fading light of a Texas day
[00:20.84]San Antonio
[00:23.22]through the windshield of a Chevrolet
[00:26.52]With the front tyres pointed out of town
[00:30.01]she sighs, and rolls her window down
[00:33.20]counts to three and throws that wedding band
[00:40.68]In front of the Alamo
[00:43.11]that's a pretty good place to make a stand
[00:46.98]
[00:54.03]In front of the Alamo
[00:56.08]where the cameras click and the tourists stare
[01:00.43]a long long time ago
[01:02.84]she met the man in question there
[01:06.44]she wanted trust, she wanted truth
[01:09.92]two things he found hard to do
[01:12.71]So forever was shorter than she planned
[01:20.24]In front of the Alamo
[01:22.59]that's a pretty good place to make a stand
[01:26.75]
[01:40.38]She didn't come for inspiration,
[01:45.45]or to breathe the mighty dust of heroes lost
[01:52.08]She just felt the time was right
[01:55.78]at this random traffic light
[01:58.72]to say enough is enough and move on
[02:06.95]In front of the Alamo
[02:09.09]in the fading light of a Texas day
[02:13.45]San Antonio
[02:15.79]through the windshield of a Chevrolet
[02:19.48]Maybe something in the air
[02:22.75]makes the timid braver there
[02:25.83]To cross the line that they've drawn in the sand
[02:33.18]In front of the Alamo
[02:36.00]They held on, she lets go
[02:39.97]In front of the Alamo
[02:44.05]That's a pretty good place to make a stand
[02:48.21]
