Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pass the cotton fields and the old spring mill
We laid a blanket down where the world was still
Where nothing but a quarter moon light's up the dawn
Just me and her letting nature work
When it feels so right there's no need for words
All cuddled up just listening to our hearts
[Verse 2]
And the crickets
Itty bitty crickets
Ain't another sound for miles around
Just listen
It's quiet
Real quiet
When the crickets start chirping, Lord, don't they say it all
[Verse 3]
It was going great, just our third date
We were taking it slow
But getting carried away
I never thought you could fall so far so soon
It could've been her eyes or the Boone's Farm Wine
But either way my tongue came untied
We both heard me say , I love you
[Verse 4]
Crickets
Nothing but crickets
Ain't another sound for miles around
Just listen
It's quiet
Real quiet
When the crickets start chirping, Lord, don't they say it all
[Verse 5]
It might have been seconds but it felt like an hour
Then she gave me a kiss said it's all worked out
Got the mammas white dress, my grandmama's ring
I know a little church, baby what do you think?
She said what do you think?
[Verse 6]
It's quiet
Real quiet
When the crickets start chirping, Lord, don't they say it all
Oh crickets
Itty bitty crickets
When the crickets start chirping, Lord, don't they say it all
