Anita Dreams
The sun comes up in Amarillo, Texas
As a new day breaks in Anita's world
Sometimes she feels she's runnin' out of time
Life shows no mercy on this lonely girl
Her world keeps spinning like a carousel
Or the wheels on an 18-wheeler truck
And that West Texas wind keeps asking her
Anita are you runnin out of luck
(Chorus)
Anita Dreams, Anita Dreams
How long until her dreams come true
She hates these lonely nights
Hates these tears in her eyes
Seems like nothing .. Anita can do .. So
Anita Dreams, Anita Dreams
(Instrumental Break)
Now its sundown out on Interstate Forty
All night truckers settle in for the drive
Anita dreams of sweet ever afters
As Amarillo whispers goodnight
(Repeat Chorus)
