Pick up trucks and Wrangler Jeans
In a field counting our small town dreams
It was late at night, her and I
Laying there watching the stars fly by
We were only seventeen
It was nice knowing everything
What I'd give to relive those times
All so clear as the southern sky
Lookin' back keeps this man from moving on
I still see her smilin' sitting next to me
But the only thing left is an empty seat
Cause I've lost the only thing I've ever known
I still hold on
She ain't here, but she ain't gone
Barstools and empty booths
That last call was our last call too
Nah I ain't proud of the things I said
The ones you can't forget running through my head
Can't let go of the pain from the day you left
Those tail lights fading away
What I'd give to relive those times
All so clear as the southern sky
Lookin' back keeps this man from moving on
I still see her smilin' sitting next to me
But the only thing left is an empty seat
Cause I've lost the only thing I've ever known
I still hold on
She ain't here, but she ain't gone
She could of had my last name
I only got myself to blame
What I'd give to relive those times
All so clear as the southern sky
Lookin' back keeps this man from moving on
I still see her smilin' sitting next to me
But the only thing left is an empty seat
Cause I've lost the only thing I've ever known
I still hold on
She ain't here, but she ain't gone
Yeah she ain't gone
