TN / I Always Knew
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you ever come to Tennessee
I'd love to show you around
Introduce you to all the previous versions of me
And be your personal tour guide through my home town
Facetime just doesn't do this justice
I want to hold you in my arms
So please wait for me for a few more months
It'll be over before you know it
And long distance is hard, but it isn't as strong as us
I don't mean to sound naïve
I just know that I can't love you unless you let me
So if you're willing to wait this out
And take a trip to the deep south
I'll show you why so many songs are about
Tennessee
If we ever get the chance to meet
Think I'll kiss you on the spot
Stop being so scared of what might be
And instead be scared of what might not
FaceTime just doesn't do us justice
I gotta hold you in my arms
So please wait for me for a few more months
It'll be over before you know it
And long distance is hard, but it isn't as strong as us
I don't mean to sound naïve
I just know that I can't love you unless you let me
So if you're willing to wait this out
And take a trip to the deep south
I'll show you why so many songs are about, Tennessee
If my fears come to fruition
And this ends before you can visit me
I still hope one day you'll go on your own
I don't need to see you to see it
I know that you'll love Tennessee
And you'll agree the sky is just as big here as it is at home
But please wait for me for just a few more months
It'll be over before we know it
And long distance is hard but is it stronger than us?
I don't mean to be naïve
I know I can't love you unless you let me
But if you try to wait this out
I'll book you a flight to the deep south
And show you why I wrote this song about
Tennessee
Maybe I always knew
It wasn't gonna last
The inconvenient truth
Is you can't love someone into loving you back
So even if I didn't always know, I probably should have
Maybe I always knew
It was gonna end like this
If it seems too good to be truth it usually is
So even if I didn't always know I definitely should have
Hindsight's 2020
I should have known the ending before it ever happened
Based off patterns and attention, gambling addictions
I rarely learn but even when I do I never listen
