I look out on these shields of heather
Across this countryside
I wonder how they've grown together
While people live such separate lives
I think I'll stay inside for the winter
Cuz the weather's in my bones
And the wind could shatter bone to splinter
Then howl me back home
I'm fragile as the lady of the harbor
As fragile as her torch that glows
As fragile as the gulf stream waters
To the Texas coast... to the Texas coast
I stared up at the faces in the mountain
Just a year ago
Laughin' in the spirit of America
And singin' in the snow
Now I wish I felt as strong as that mountain
Just carved in stone
I wish I was the gulf stream water
And I could sail you home
I'm fragile as the lady of the harbor
As fragile as her torch that glows
As fragile as the gulf stream waters
To the Texas coast... to the Texas coast
Across this countryside
I wonder how they've grown together
While people live such separate lives
I think I'll stay inside for the winter
Cuz the weather's in my bones
And the wind could shatter bone to splinter
Then howl me back home
I'm fragile as the lady of the harbor
As fragile as her torch that glows
As fragile as the gulf stream waters
To the Texas coast... to the Texas coast
I stared up at the faces in the mountain
Just a year ago
Laughin' in the spirit of America
And singin' in the snow
Now I wish I felt as strong as that mountain
Just carved in stone
I wish I was the gulf stream water
And I could sail you home
I'm fragile as the lady of the harbor
As fragile as her torch that glows
As fragile as the gulf stream waters
To the Texas coast... to the Texas coast
