I was born here, raised here
Swore I wouldn't die here, in this town
It was too small, all I saw was a red dirt red line holding me down
Three months ago I was three months away
From a U-Haul rolling down an interstate
Funny how a made up mind can change
You blew in like a July wind this summer
Stole my heart
Took me underneath those wings, like you did that day in Galveston
Your sun-kissed skin set mine on fire
Took this small-town boy higher than I ever been
I knew right then my running days were done
My getaway plan got a little upgrade
Girl, you gave me a reason to stay
I was stuck in a dead-end
A never-ending song, the same old lines
Yeah, it was the same scene
Same drink at the same bar
With the same damn closin' time
'Til that blue-white girl with a jet black truck
Worn out boots, new to me dust showed up
And now baby look it us
You blew in like a July wind this summer
Stole my heart
Took me underneath those wings, like you did that day in Galveston
Your sun-kissed skin set mine on fire
Took this small-town boy higher than I ever been
I knew right then my running days were done
My getaway plan got a little upgrade
Girl, you gave me a reason to stay, oh yeah
I had every reason to leave
Reason to fly like a bat out of hell right past them county lines
'Til that mornin' you drove by
And you said, "Hi"
You blew in like a July wind this summer
Stole my heart
Took me underneath those wings, like you did that day in Galveston
Your sun-kissed skin set mine on fire
Took this small-town boy higher than I ever been
I knew right then my running days were done
My getaway plan got a little upgrade
Girl, you gave me a reason, a reason to stay
Oh, every reason to stay
Every reason to stay
Oh girl, you did
