Damn These Dreams

I remember hearin' Hank on the radio

The first time it felt like fallin' in love

I bought a cassette, stole some Reds from Dad

And me and ol' Junior just burned it up

I was hooked like a fish

Every birthday wish was guitars and records

Now, honey, I know you miss me

I feel it when you kiss me

Trust me when I say every goodbye hurts

Well, damn these dreams

Playin' my heart just like a guitar string

Pullin' me away from you and everything I really need

Well, damn these dreams

Chasin' that same old whiskey melody

All up and down these Nashville streets

It's hard to look true love in the eye and leave

Well, damn these dreams

Well, I remember hearin' my song on the radio

The first time it felt like some kinda drug

Out there on the road playing show after show

Me and the boys just burnin' it up

It was all fun and games till the little ones came

'Cause it makes my heart bleed

When I gotta drive away and listen to 'em say

"Hey, Daddy, why you gotta go? Please don't leave"

Well, damn these dreams

Playin' my heart just like a guitar string

Pullin' me away from you and everything I really need

Well, damn these dreams

Chasin' that same old whiskey melody

All up and down every small town street

It's hard to look true love in the eye and leave

Well, damn these dreams

Well, damn these dreams

Well, it's in my heart and it's in my soul

And just like you, I never can let go

These wheels just gotta roll

'Cause I remember hearin' Hank on the radio

The first time it felt like fallin' in love
