Westphalia Texas Waltz
Lyrics by: Mickey Newbury
He said to her «My little darlin’,
You’re as lovely as I did recall,
and her eyes brightly sparkled like diamonds,
as her tears started slowly to fall.
Oh yes I can clearly remember,
he said with a slow Texas drawl,
and she smiled as she softly surrendered,
to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz.
Instrumental till key change up:
He stood as the sun in the mornin’,
rose up on Wichita Falls,
and there in the dim light she watched,
as he sauntered on off down the hall,
Oh yes I can clearly remember,
he said with a slow Texas drawl,
and she smiled as she softly surrendered,
to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz,
Instrumental till final verse:
Oh yes I can clearly remember,
that night and San Antone Rose,
she smiled as she softly surrendered,
to the strains of the Westphalia Waltz.
