Everywhere

We were born in this little town
Growing up I was counting down
Every single day, ‘til we made our getaway
But you said you could never see yourself
Trying to make a life anywhere else
This would be your home and I was on my own
But ever since you said good-bye, I been out here on the wind
And baby, you would be surprise all the places you have been

I’ve seen you in Alberkerky, waiting out a blizzard
In Arizona, dancing ‘cross the desert
Watching the sun set in Monterey
Girl I swear, just the other day you were
Down in Georgia, picking them peaches
In Carolina, barefoot on the beaches
No matter where you choose to be
In my heart I’ll always see you…..Everywhere
Now a days when I’m passing through
The conversations always turns to you
And I hear you’re doing fine, living out by the county line
Got a man that’s home every night, a couple of kids
And the kind of life that you wanted to lead
Guess you can say the same for me
But you and I made our own choices all those years ago
Still I know I’ll hear your voice and see you down the road

Maybe in Oklahoma, driving ‘cross the fiery
In Dallas, Texas, isn’t that were we
Always say we would like to try
Never did so maybe that’s why
You’re on every highway just beyond the high plains
Right beside me in all of my sweet dreams
No matter where you choose to be
In my heart I’ll always see you
