You say that you’re leaving And I can’t say it takes me by surprise But hearing you say it girl Just knocks the tears out of my eyes I don’t know what to do But I’ll try to do it right When you leave Amarillo Turn out the lights When you walk out to stay For me it’s over anyway When you leave Amarillo Turn out the lights I’m sure gonna miss you And when you’re gone nothing will be the same My life will be empty As these sad old lonesome wind swept plains Give him your tomorrow Oh but girl give me tonight When you leave Amarillo Turn out the lights
