700 miles is a long way
It's even longer alone
It sure makes for a hard day
Knowin' you're waiting back home

But I have to remember
The reason why I'm here
'Cause music was callin' my name
But I still love you baby
And one thing won't change
Even if I find fortune and fame

I'm still your Texas boy, born and raised
On country music and football games
You're still the girl in my heart
Dream of being where you are
I won't forget where I'm from
Or why I'm here and who I love
These few things will always stay the same
And my love is that way

This faded old picture reminds me
Of every thing we've been through
And this dream I've been chasing
Proves there's a lot left to do

But I know this ain't easy
You're falling to pieces
But I promise wherever I am
You'll always be with me
From your shadow to your heartbeat
'Cause you make me a better man

I'm still your Texas boy, born and raised
On country music and football games
You're still the girl in my heart
Dream of being where you are
I won't forget where I'm from
Or why I'm here and who I love
These few things will always stay the same
And my love is that way

I'd do anything to hold you
Try my best to show you
That my love for you will always stay the same
And now I'm begging you to hold on
To that feeling that was so strong
The day that I stepped on that plane

Girl I'm still your Texas boy, born and raised
On Dallas Cowboys and George Strait
You're still the girl in my heart
Dream of being where you are
I won't forget where I'm from
Or why I'm here and who I love
These few things will always stay the same
And I can't wait to prove to you someday
My love is that way
My love is that way
