The weather's been changin since you're gone
All of the cotton has turned brown
The reservoir's dried up in this thirsty little town
There ain't no water to be found
But still I feel like I have drowned
So heaven help me I can't explain it
How a girl can make it so cold
But since you're gone I have waited
For these Laredo skies to snow
Well I won't drive out to find you
There's too much ice on our road
I'd rather find someone new, somebody warm to hold on to
But can't feel to grip since my fingers froze
You frosted my heart closed
So heaven help me I can't explain it
How a woman can make it so cold
But since you're gone I have waited
For these Laredo skies to snow
The sky is gray out to the west
There's too many clouds to see the sunset
My pony shivers as we ride the fence
He wants to move on, I ain't ready yet
I still got too many holes to mend
So heaven help me I can't explain it
How you can make it so cold
But since you're gone I have waited
For these Laredo skies to snow
Since you're gone I have waited
For these Laredo skies to snow
