I barely remember the first time I met you
You didn't remember my name
The alcohol might have clouded your vision
To me its been doing the same
But I haven't forgotten the first time I saw you
At most on your way out of town
Everyone warned me don't get worked up over nothing
But nothing is all I've got now
You close your eyes and you don't hear me speaking
That's probably how it should be
Now I realize you were close to perfection
But I went and chose Tennessee
I tried in vain but I can't rediscover
The mirror that shows who I am
Reflecting on you in a warm night in summer
And all the things I couldn't have planned
You close your eyes and you don't hear me speaking
That's probably how it should be
Now I realize you were close to perfection
But I went and chose Tennessee
I went and chose Tennessee
