long dirt road

she lived just across the bridge

off rural route 1

her mom and daddy liked me

said we were to young

so i'd throw rocks at her window

on a hot summer night

and we talk on the front porch till the mornin' light. well we turned 16

just couldn't wait

parked by the railroad tracks on our second date

my lips are still burnin' from that first kiss

don't know if it's her or just the feelin' i miss. so many times

i tried to find

that part of me

i left behind

yeah well lately i've been missin'

my innocent soul

guess it's lost somewhere down a long dirt road

yeah it's lost somewhere down a long dirt road. that last summer ended way to soon

i took a job

she moved away to school

i can still see the dust trail from when she took off that day

she left more than just her tracks when she drove away. so many times

i tried to find

that part of me

i left behind

yeah well lately i've been missin'

the love we let go

guess it's lost somewhere down a long dirt road

yeah it's lost somewhere down a long dirt road. so many times

i tried to find

that part of me

i left behind

yeah well lately i've been missin'

the life i used to know

guess it's lost somewhere down a long dirt road

i know i should just move on and let it all go

but i'm still lost somewhere down a long dirt road

i'm still lost somewhere down a long dirt road.
