Testo I Was - Neal McCoy

Testo della canzone I Was (Neal McCoy), tratta dall'album Hot Country

I drove up from a river town
It was late September, early October
Thought maybe I could clear my mind
And see the leaves turn red
My tunes up and the window down
On the Skyline Drive when she flagged me over
"Hallelujah, what a beautiful morning"
Were the first words that she said
Her eyes were blue
As the sky on a perfect Blue Ridge day
She said, "I could use a lift
If you're going my way" and I was
I was headed south, I was headed out
Headed nowhere or anywhere we wanted to go
The road, it stretched out in front of us
She was ready to run it just like I was
Told me she was twenty-two
She'd just broken out of William and Mary
Another summer under daddy's roof
Was all that she could do
Her boyfriend, she cut him loose
Too cold for a wedding in January
She said, "That's enough about me
Now tell me about you"
I rambled on
About broken hearts and staying too long
She said, "I'm sorry
But you were right to move on" and I was
I was headed south, I was headed out
Headed nowhere or anywhere we wanted to go
The road, it stretched out in front of us
She was ready to run it just like I was
Ain't it funny how
Everything hinges on a twist of fate
She held my hand and said
"Aren't you amazed?" and I was
I was headed south, I was headed out
Headed nowhere or anywhere we wanted to go
And the road, it stretched out in front of us
She was ready to run it just like I was, oh
