Lyrics

When we get there we'll be a pair
Go to high school football games, know all the players
And I'll show you a place that's always been
Just a bit around the way, it'll get under your skin
When we get there
When we get there on a crisp October day
We'll smell the burning autumn leaves
Watch the evening swallow the day
And I'll walk you to the fair for some ice cream
Make you smile like a little child on that Wild Abilene
When we get there
And if you see what I see
Then please come with me
And we'll find what we need
As we go
When we get there, we'll breathe the air
Read the books you only read about in your favorite chair
Without worries, time will be our friend
Spend the day drinking lemonade write the letters never sent
When we get there
And if you see what I see
Then please come with me
And we'll find what we need
As we go
The birds will build their nests
The spiders their webs
And you and I our home
Our lives will sing a song
Our kids will dance along
And our path will become a poem
When we get there, there'll be a front porch swing
Umbrella drinks and cool summer nights, we'll hear the crickets sing
And I'll play you the songs you've heard before
Like an old friend suddenly pullin' in and knockin' on your door
When we get there
And if you see what I see
Then please come with me
And we'll find what we need as we go
And if you take my hand
Who knows where we'll land
But we'll make our plans as we go
