Texas are Scottish band fronted by singer Sharleen Spiteri. The band was founded by Johnny McElhone taking their name from the 1984 Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas. Their musical sound went from blues rock from debut album Southside (1989), via blue eyed soul of White on Blonde (1997) to the disco pop of their most recent release Red Book (2005). Sharleen Spiteri (vocals, guitar), Ally McErlaine (guitar), Johnny McElhone (bass) have survived all line ups. In 1994, Ellen DeGeneres requested the use of the Texas track "So Called Friend" as the theme tune for her self-titled ABC Comedy Show.

Broken Lyrics

Texas

Every night before I rest my head
Hold me close as I draw another breath
Still hoping, that our love's not broken

Every flight that we plan ahead
Look to the skies for the words that I've said
Still hoping, that our world's not broken

So tonight, you're everything upon the screen
And everything I want to be
I'll come with you and dream my dream

So tonight, in every way I want you to stay
And every little word you say - oh

Every morning when I wait for you
Each way I look you'll see something new
Still hoping, that my world's not broken

Every time I dream crazy dreams
Of bright water and brightless sunbeams
I'm hoping, that my mind's not broken

So tonight, you're everything upon the screen
And everything I want to be
I'll come with you and dream my dream

So tonight, in every way I want you to stay
And every little word you say - oh

(INSTRUMENTAL)

So tonight, you're everything upon the screen
And everything I want to be
I'll come with you and dream my dream

So tonight, in every way I want you to stay
And every little word you say
I'll come with you and dream my dream

So tonight, in every way I want you to stay
And every little word you say - oh
