Has the price we've paid
Turned to nothing
And the hopes and dreams we've had become untrue
I made a promise
I'd never lead you to trouble
Then I took your hand and ran
Without a clue

We'll be back by springtime
I'd say summer latest
I know you hate it, but
Gotta fuel that fire, while there's flame
If it seems your hope has faded
I'll be praying
Please keep waiting
Till Oklahoma City calls our name

Gonna try our luck out east
To the Carolinas and Tennessee
We're gonna try to find one reason
To keep it afloat
I've been thinking about that talk we had
Is it all worth it, when it hurts this bad
And the band plays on
To a song that's never heard

We'll be back by springtime
I'd say summer latest
I know you hate it, but
Gotta fuel that fire, while there's flame
If it seems your hope has faded
I'll be praying
Please keep waiting
Till Oklahoma City calls our name

O-oh has the price we've paid
Turned to nothing
And the hopes and dreams we've had
Become untrue
I made a promise
I'd never lead you to trouble
Then I took your hand and ran
Without a clue

Cause it'll be warm
And I know we'll be headed home
When Oklahoma City
Calls our name
