This is a good slow dance It's a true song about a boy Who loved a girl in San Angelo ♪ We'd walk up and down the Concho River We'd find a soft place and watch the sun go down So was it me or was it what I could not give her? She left me shattered, my life scattered all around She said time would heal my broken heart I'd find a true companion for my soul You know she was right, we were wrong Nothing more than a pretty song 'Bout a boy who loved a girl In San Angelo ♪ When I'd close my eyes, I could hear her singing In the chapel where she said we'd wed someday It rattled me so to hear them old church bells ringing Knowing well enough we'd never love that way She said time would heal my broken heart And I'd find a true companion for my soul You know she was right, we were wrong Nothing more than a pretty song 'Bout a boy who loved a girl In San Angelo ♪ And looking back, it was a blessing that she broke my heart in two 'Cause if I'd have never lost her, honey, I'd have never found you And she said time would heal my broken heart And I'd find a true companion for my soul You know she was right, we were wrong Nothing more than a pretty song 'Bout a boy who loved a girl About a boy who once loved a girl in San Angelo
