 She said her mind was made up,
As she put on her makeup, said there was nothing there for her.
She just packed up her suitcase,
She walked right out that front gate, with her taxi waiting at the curb.
Too many empty nights alone too late I finally realize,
It's a crying shame it took her tears to open up my eyes.
I should have seen Abilene on her mind.
Her leaving me and Tennessee far behind,
Should have seen her growing lonely
All alone there waiting on me
All the warning signs were there but I was blind
I should have seen Abilene on her mind.
Last night the band played Dallas
I sang a song I wrote about us
You could feel the sadness in the air
And after the show was over
I felt the hand there on my shoulder
Turned around and found her standing there.
She said "After all these years it's nice to know your dreams came true."
And the wedding band there on her hand told me that hers had too.
I should have seen Abilene on her mind
Her leaving me and Tennessee far behind
Should have seen her growing lonely
All alone there waiting on me
All the warning signs were there but I was blind
I should have seen Abilene on her mind
I should have seen Abilene on her mind
Abilene on her mind.
