Houston
Houston (
i/ˈhjuːstən/ HYOO-stən) is the most populous city in Texas and the fourth most populous city in the United States. With a census-estimated 2014 population of 2.239 million people, within a land area of 599.6 square miles (1,553 km2), it also is the largest city in the Southern United States, as well as the seat of Harris County. It is the principal city of Houston–The Woodlands–Sugar Land, which is the fifth most populated metropolitan area in the United States.
Houston was founded in 1836 on land near the banks of Buffalo Bayou (now known as Allen's Landing) and incorporated as a city on June 5, 1837. The city was named after former General Sam Houston, who was president of the Republic of Texas and had commanded and won at the Battle of San Jacinto 25 miles (40 km) east of where the city was established. The burgeoning port and railroad industry, combined with oil discovery in 1901, has induced continual surges in the city's population. In the mid-twentieth century, Houston became the home of the Texas Medical Center—the world's largest concentration of healthcare and research institutions—and NASA's Johnson Space Center, where the Mission Control Center is located.
Houston station (Texas)
Houston is an Amtrak intercity train station in Houston
History
The present Houston station, which opened on October 26, 1959, was built by the Southern Pacific Railroad to replace Grand Central Station, which was just east of the present station. That station operated from September 1, 1934 until the property was sold to the U.S. Government in 1959 to become the site of the Houston main post office. Grand Central Station had replaced the original Houston & Texas Central depot of 1886. When Amtrak was created it was one of two stations in Houston that served Amtrak trains, the other being Union Station, now part of Minute Maid Park. All Amtrak trains moved to Southern Pacific Station by the end of July 1974, and all trains were canceled or rerouted out of Houston except the Sunset Limited. This station continued to be owned and operated by the Southern Pacific Railroad after the creation of Amtrak, and has been owned and operated by the Union Pacific Railroad since the merger of Southern Pacific and Union Pacific.

Appreciatin'
by: OutlandishAs I got up this morning
You watched me and hoped I?d talk to you
Even if it was just a few words
Askin? your opinion
Thankin? you for something good that happened, Lord
But you noticed I was too busy
Tryin? to find the right clothes matchin? with the right shoes
And I ran around the house getting ready
You knew there would be minutes to stop
And say hello, but I still, I were too busy
And at one point, I had to wait doing nuttin?
Then you saw me spring to my feet
Thought I wanted to talk
But I ran to the phone
Called a friend, wassup
Okay, now it?s time for us to talk
So I find an empty room but hesitation is in my heart
A look down the hall, nobody there, so I close the door
Take of my new jacket, man, I can?t put this on the floor
I?m a have this conversation standin? or my jeans will get dirty
Better yet, I?m a sit on this chair right here ?cause I feel a bit lazy
Almost forgot to pull the curtains so no one can look in
And just when I?m about to utter you some words
Someone steps in
Embarrassed by the moment
I jump up and come up with some stupid excuse
Like I was looking for something
All while you were watchin? me patiently
Ready to give more chances with the hope
That eventually at some point
I will speak to you
You give me so much
You wait all day for a nod
A prayer or a thought
A thankful part of my heart
To all my moros back home
All day workin? hard
Struggling all week
Every dawn standing tall
I know you noticed that before lunch I looked around
I felt embarrassed to talk to you
That is why I didn?t bow my head
Glanced 3 or 4 tables over, saw some of my friends talking to you
But I did not, there is still more time left
Hope that I will talk to you yet, but I went home
And seemed as if I had lots of things to do
After that what is on TV
Suddenly I felt too tired to talk to you
Fell asleep in no time without a thought for you
I know it?s hard to have a one sided conversation
Well, give me some days to try again, and again, and again
Pasé por enfrente de tu casa esta mañana muy temprano
No me dio ni por llamarte, saludarte lo cual es muy extraño
Ahora que la luz está apagada estoy pensando
Si sólo cuando yo lo necesito conversamos
O si sólo cuando temo me haces falta
A cada instante tu retrato está en mi espalda
Me equivoco en muchas de cosas
Y defectos tengo más de cien estoy luchando, tú lo sabes bien
Faults, I have more than 100
I'm struggling, you know I am
Appreciatin' is something I be forgettin', every second
24/7, I'm a forgetful servant, I gotta be prayin' though
Appreciatin' when suffering, calamities call
My soul be hospitalized and all gonna be alright
To all my moros back home
All day workin' hard
Struggling all week
Every dawn standing tall
To all my moros sheddin' tears
Still greet with warm smiles
Patiently throughout the years
Give praise to the most high
To all my moros back home
All day workin' hard
Struggling all week
Every dawn standing tall
To all my moros sheddin' tears
Still greet with warm smiles
Patiently throughout the years
Give praise to the most high
To all my moros back home
All day workin' hard
Struggling all week
