Starin' at you takin' off your makeup
Wonderin' why you even put it on
Well, I know you think you do, but baby, you don't need it
I wish that you could see what I see when it's gone
I see a dust trail followin' an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
Wait, baby, don't move, right, there it is
T-shirt hangin' off a dogwood branch
That river was cold, but we gave love a chance
Yeah, yeah, to me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset river bank, first time feelin'
Oh-oh
Ah-ah, ah
Yeah, smile and shake your head as if you don't believe me
Baby, I'll just sit right here and let you take me back
I'm on that gravel road, look at me
On my way to pick you up
You're standin' on that front porch, lookin' just like that
Do you remember that?
And I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
Wait, baby, don't move, right, there it is
T-shirt hangin' off a dogwood branch
That river was cold, but we gave love a chance
Yeah, yeah, to me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset river bank, first time feelin'
You don't look a day
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset river bank, first time feelin'
Yeah, you don't look a day
You don't look a single day over
Over fast cars and freedom
And I'm on that gravel road, look at me
Gravel road, baby
Look at us, I see ya
Standin' on the front porch, lookin' just like that
