lyrics

Llano Estacado
Music by William S. Chaffin
Lyrics by Brian Fairbanks
2010

A dance hall
Near the station
At a table

Sat a Beauty
A bottle
And her gun

And the choices
That She made
Will haunt me forever

She just closed her eyes
And picked
It didn’t matter
Which one

Is it just my imagination?
Or is your future
The very same one
You just came from

On the Llano Estacada
Lies a treasure

On the Llano Estacado
Lies my Love

On a plain
Stakes a Beauty
Without Measure

Moving forward
The only way
That She can think of

Was it just my imagination?
Or is your future
The very same one
You came from

A timepiece
Keeping rhythm
On the shoreline

The Man
Doesn’t wait
For Her to come

The Ghosts that brought
Him here
Won’t haunt him forever

Still,
It was hard too close his eyes
And know
He wasn’t the one

There has to be a consolation
Knowing my future
Is better than the one
I gave up

And I’m still alive
Yes I’m still alive
As everything else dies

And is buried
On the Llano Estacado

The Truth My Dear?
