Tennessee Forever

Driving down eighth avenue
I can't help but flashback to
The billiards sign in the parking lot
Where we walked to my car
A week before you left

Got to the house before our friends
The door was locked you hopped the fence
I stood out on the porch
Until you let me in

I wish that you'd never left Nashville
I miss how it felt to know about you
Weren't so far away
The neon downtown ain't as bright and
If you're chasing something and you don't find it
You can come back
Know that you'll have
Me and Tennessee
Forever
Forever
Tennessee Forever

I'm scared that I'm starting to
Forget my favorite parts of you
Which hand was it around my waist
Which song was it that we sang
Did you even care at all?

I keep replaying in my head
The things you did
The things I said
Was it something I did wrong?
I guess I'll never know

I wish that you'd never left Nashville
I miss how it felt to know about you
Weren't so far away
The neon downtown ain't as bright and
If you're chasing something and you don't find it
You can come back
Know that you'll have
Me and Tennessee
Forever
Forever
Tennessee Forever

I'm not waiting 'round for you
I've got places to go too
But i see you sitting in my chevy
I'd keep you around if you let me
Oh, it's just a memory
Oh, the city's empty
Oh, it's just a memory
Oh, the city's empty

I wish you'd never left Nashville
I miss how it felt to know that you
Weren't so far away
The neon downtown ain't as bright and
If you're chasing something and you don't find it
You can come back
Know that you'll have
Me and Tennessee
Forever
Forever
Tennessee forever
Forever, forever
Tennessee forever
Tennessee forever
