City Limit Lyrics - Holly Dunn

Holly Dunn 

From Across the Rio Grande 

1988 

City Limit 

That city boy 

talked so smooth 

He promised me the stars 

but I got a neon moon 

He broke my heart 

in this big old lonely town 

Now I'm up front on a Greyhound bus 

tryin' to find my way out 

Chorus 

City limit, I've been lookin' for a sign 

Any minute I'll be leavin' you behind 

I think I've finally reached my 

City limit, now it's time to cross the line 

I've had my fill 

of high rise dreams 

I want to get back down to Earth 

where I ought to be 

I lost my way 

in the place I've known too long 

But the sweet sound of the wheels go 'round 

saying I'm on my way home
