​Lyrics:
When we dance together my world's in disguise
It's a fairyland tale that come true
And when you look at me with those stars in your eyes
I could waltz across Texas with you

Chorus:  Waltz across Texas with you in my arms
               Waltz across Texas with you
               Like a storybook ending I'm lost in your charms
               And I could waltz across Texas with you

My heartaches and troubles are just up and gone
The moment that you come in view
And with your hand in mine dear
I could dance on and on
