I don't talk about you much
But I love it when your name comes up
In conversation
Back at home
Playing records
We both know
The county fair
The plastic chairs
The reason that we brought them there
The sky was lighting up in red and white
But all the blue was in your eyes
I did everything I could think of
To make you not want to leave
I did everything I could think of
To make you not want to leave me crying
But oh you ain't ever coming back
The trail's gone cold, can't follow your tracks
Oh you ain't ever coming back for me
No
And oh now I'm running in the wind
I'm wishing I could hold your hand again
But oh you ain't ever coming back for me
But oh a girl can dream
Cherry wine
And dandelions
Pops against the green
It's all a show
But I don't mind it makes me smile
If only for a little while
Another drink another mile
The winter snows
The kudzu grows
And nothing's as it seems
No one can see
The names I carved
In underneath
The sapling trees
Are hardening
I did everything I could think of
To make you not want to leave me crying
But oh you ain't ever coming back
The trail's gone cold, can't follow your tracks
Oh you ain't ever coming back for me
No, no
And oh now I'm running in the wind
I'm wishing I could hold your hand again
But no you ain't ever coming back for me
But oh a girl can dream
A girl can dream
My friends all ask but I don't know
Where you went or why you'd go
The summer breeze is dying now
Just like the boys who taught us how to love
But I don't talk about you much
