WIDE OPEN SPACES
the
Dixie Chicks
Who
doesn't know what I'm talking about
Who's never left home, who's never struck out
To find a dream and a life of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many precede and many will follow
A young boy's dream no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out west
But what it holds for him, he hasn't yet guessed
He needs wide open spaces
Room to make the big mistakes
He needs new faces
Who's never left home, who's never struck out
To find a dream and a life of their own
A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
Many precede and many will follow
A young boy's dream no longer hollow
It takes the shape of a place out west
But what it holds for him, he hasn't yet guessed
He needs wide open spaces
Room to make the big mistakes
He needs new faces
He
knows the high stakes
He
traveled this road as a child
Wide
eyed and grinning, he never tired
But
now he won't be coming back with the rest
If
these are life's lessons, he'll take the test
He
needs wide open spaces
Room
to make the big mistakes
He
needs new faces
He
knows the high stakes.
As his folks drive away, his dad yells, "Check the oil!"
Mom stares out the window and says, "I'm leaving my boy"
She said, "It didn't seem like that long ago”
When she stood there and let her own folks know
