Well, I was just a kid, maybe two or three. Had a bad nightmare, scared the life out of me. Mama came in to calm my fears. When nothing she could do would stop those tears.
Every guy in my country road home town. Lost their mind when this one girl came around. Oh, I was seventeen. The first time that she looked my way. Hot as the pavement in July.
A short red dress don't turn my head. At least that's true unless it's you that's wearin' it. Glamor girls, high heels and pearls. They're a dime a dozen in this world.
If you've got faith and you believe in what you're living for. You can stand your ground when the devil's at your door. And a little hope can help you when the road is getting rough.
The first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death. I stood right beside your crib and counted every breath. Lookin' at your little face, Heaven seemed so close.
I see the questions in your eyes. I know what's weighin' on your mind. But you can be sure I know my part. 'Cause I'll stand beside you through the years.
I guess everybody goes to the grocery store, even me. There's no tellin' who in the world there you're gonna see. Lost in space at the cash only aisle number three.
Sometimes a song can touch a nerve that takes me back to you. When I pick up my old guitar and I play your favorite tune. Every now and then, some little thing, I've buried comes bubblin' up.
I like the feel of your name on my lips. And I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss. The way that your fingers run through my hair. And how your scent lingers even when your not there.
Another night on this interstate. Seems like I've been on it everyday. For years now, does it ever end. . On my way to another show. Where I'll end up, I don't even know.
Well, I don't wanna hear, 'Last call'. And I don't wanna look at the clock on the wall. Let's lose track of time while we're dancing this close. . And I don't really care if no one's around.
When we're this close I can almost hear your heart beat. As you softly breathe lyin' here with me. Your skin's like a canvas being painted by the moonbeams.
I know he gave you every reason. To lose your faith in love. Give me the chance I'll find the pieces. To a heart that's given up. . You say there's nothing I can do.
They read you Cinderella. You hoped it would come true. That one day your Prince Charming would come rescue you. You like romantic movies. You never will forget.
Well, I hoped and I prayed, I loved you from afar. And I cried and I dreamed, wished on every star. But nothin' I'd do, got me closer to you. So I locked all my feelings inside.
so i locked my feelings up inside. one night you came in the room your eyes caught mine. they held something new. you walked straight over to me. and the word you said was a surprise.
I get up and battle the day. Things don't always go my way. It might rain but that's okay. I get to come home to you. . Sometimes life may get me down.
Another guy in line on Highway 9 in a rush. Clockin' in and out again, I guess I'm just. An average man, but these calloused hands. Are holding an amazing love.
There's a little girl. Wanna make her mine. What she wants I don't know. If red means stop. An' green means go. Her light is always yellow. . I'm wrapped around her finger.
I wanna wake up each morning. With you for the rest of my life. I wanna feel your heart beating. And just get lost in your eyes. . You can tell me your secrets.
