I Was Lyrics

I drove up form a river town it was late September early October
Thought maybe I could clear my mind and see the leaves turn red
The tune's up and the window down
On a sky line drive when she bagged 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 stretched out in front of us
And she was ready to run it just like I was

Told me she was twenty-two
And she'd just broken out of William and Mary
Another summer under her daddy's roof was all that she could do
Her boyfriend she cut him looseNeal McCoy - I Was - http://motolyrics.com/neal-mccoy/i-was-lyrics.html
Too cold for a wedding in January
She said thats enough about me tell me about you

I rambled on about broken harts 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 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
The road stretched out in front of us
And she ready to run it just like I was
