we hit the road
i said
tell me where you're wanting to be
and that's where we're gonna go
if it takes my life
i looked over at you
had a smile on my face
and i noticed you were smiling too
girl
you were smiling too
and for the first time in a long time
we were alright
turned the radio on
and heard 'luckenbach
texas'
and you said it was your favorite song
girl
you started singing along
crossed state lines
i couldn't keep my eyes open
so
i stopped to see an old friend of mine
to get some sleep for a while
for the first time in a long time
we were alright
woke by the phone
heard your voice say i should come get my things
'cause you were gonna be home
and you wanted them gone
like a brick
it hit me
everything i thought that happened that night
well
it was only a dream
so i went back to sleep
what else could i do?
tried to find my way back into that dream
so i could be close to you
so i could be close to you
'cause for the first time in a long time
we were alright
oh
for the first time in a long time
we were alright
