I walked her to the plane in Phoenix I said, "Say hello to your mama." She couldn't even look me in the eye I drove out to the desert Just like nothing happened But somewhere in the darkness I heard her say goodbye [Chorus] Now I hear voices in the wind Sayin' she ain't coming back to me I look for guidance in the sky But the stars have all gone out tonight I feel like the love of my life is dying Even the man in the moon is crying I'm burning up this blacktop Headin' down to Austin I wonder if she misses me tonight I wish that I could tell her How much I love her And I wish this damned ol' Thunderbird could fly [Chorus] Even the man in the moon is crying
