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, and for the first time in a long time
We were alright
