1. The rain drifted onto the range from the west
The town took a shower that settled the dust
And the last of the sun was just breaking through ...
When I started thinking of you ...
2. The Tenterfield takeaway hung with the smoke
The takeaway lady didn't laugh at my joke
And when I couldn't hold hands and give thanks like we do
I started thinking of you
Chorus
We'll keep telling ourselves
It's just a few days
You'll care for the children
I'll drive through the haze
Wishing you knew
Every time I was thinking of you ... *
*last time to Coda
3. We turned off the dirt out near Mount Kaputar
Ate Bingara rolls in the shade by the car
We soaked in the creek
And as I took in the view
I started thinking of you
Chorus
4. We got out by the Namoi
Where cotton is grown
(And) I wanted to hear
Your voice on the phone
And as I hung up
A truck rumbled through
And I started thinking of you
Chorus
