When I came here I was a boy And now I'm leaving a man When I came here I was lost But now I know who I am Oh, you helped me understand You took me by the hand and you showed me how to fight When I was afraid your lights did not fade No, they shone through the night We shared an apartment on the verge of downtown Two kids so in love but in vain I have found Well, when our love turned to rust Then all I could trust was the cover of the blanket in the night I owe it to you, I would have come unglued Had it not been for the city and her light From Houston I'm moving tonight I've got to pick up and wipe the slate clean Oh, Houston I'm losing the fight You remind me of too many things Well, time takes a toll and your eyes start to change It puts walls all around a soul and you feel restless and caged Yes, it's happened to me, I've just got to break free From the scene and the places I know I just need a new start, oh, the seas, they must part I am finally ready to go From Houston I'm moving tonight I've got to pick up and wipe the slate clean Oh, Houston I'm losing the fight You remind me of too many things Oh, Houston, I'm moving tonight But it does not mean that we'll have to part Oh, Houston this is not goodbye You will be living inside of my heart And when I think back on when I called you my home I will fill up with pride and love I will not forget all those nights that I spent How your lights shone so pretty Just a boy in the city
