That river was cold but we gave love a chance, yeah to me
A T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch
Wish that you could see what I see when it's gone
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
Looking just like that, remember that
On my way to pick you up, you're standing on the front porch
That river was cold but we gave love a chance, yeah to me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling, yeah
Wait, baby don't move, right there it is
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
I know you think you do, but baby you don't need it
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling, yeah, no no no
I'm on that gravel road, look at me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
Wait, baby don't move, right there it is
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
A T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch
That sunset and that riverbank, oh and that first time feeling
I'll just sit right here and let you take me back
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
Yeah, smile and shake your head as if you don't believe me
