The time has come,
You're really leavin You always told me that
You wanted to
I guess I never thought
It would happen
I guess I never really wanted it to
The world is calling you and
You must answer
But you can take me with you
In you drams

If you ever get back to Amarillo
In a shiny new car or
Worn out shoes
If you ever get back to Amarillo
I be waitin for you

Your sister told me you were workin At some office out in Tinsel town
Don forget about those who
Love you
They're be there for you if you
Get down
I believe in you and all you抮e after
I hope you end up where you
Want to be

Chorus

Thirty years now have
Gone by quickly
I still think of you from time to time
My wife died early, I抳e got children
I抦 happy and my health is fine
I often wondered if you found your
Freedom
I sometimes wonder if I should
Have gone

Chorus
