I'll Be Your San Antone Rose - Emmylou Harris

If they’ll play another love song

If that Miller Highlife sign stays dim

And if you keep this glass full of whiskey

I’ll whisper words, I wish I’d said to him

Just ask me to dance all the slow ones

Hold me close and take me cross the floor

I’ll gently lay my head on your shoulder

And pretend this never happened before

I don’t want to hear a sad story

We both already know how it goes

But if tonight you’ll be my tall dark stranger

I’ll be your San Antonio Rose

Well I wish I could tell you, I love you

And I wish that he weren’t always on my mind

If wishes were fast trains to Texas

Oh, I’d ride and I’d ride, how I’d ride

I don’t want to hear a sad story

We both already know how to go

So, if tonight you’ll be my tall dark stranger

I’ll be your San Antonio Rose

I’ll be your San Antonio Rose
