Lyrics
Tennessee
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.
I might say things differently than the other people out here
But when I was young, Johnny taught me to love where I came from with no fear
And what I would give to run through the trees in that Tennessee breeze again
It's not just land and dirt, it's where we learned to love the hearts of one another
And all through the night we chased the light of those fireflies
Just like our dreams, somewhere in the depths of my ancient mind
I'm just trying to make sense of it all
But how can I expect to go out without a place to fall back on?
Because you'll never know
Just what you've seen
Until you come home again
So I'll live out my dreams
But forever for Tennessee
Oh, I love me some Tennessee
And all through the night we chased the light of those fireflies
Just like our dreams, somewhere in the depths of my ancient mind
I'm just trying to make sense of it all
But how can I expect to go out without a place to fall back on?
Because you'll never know
Just what you've seen
Until you come home again
So I'll live out my dreams
But forever for Tennessee
Oh, I love me some Tennessee
Forever I owe my mind and my heart and my soul to Tennessee
You're only as far as you set out to be in your mind
It's a crime to forget where you came from when you came from
The mountains and the rivers and the cities and the dark magnolia green
So I owe my gratitude, my fortitude, my attitude towards life the way it is
Pulsing, thinking, weary hours
Dreaming of my time spent homeward
Pulsing, thinking, weary hours
Dreaming of my time spent homeward
Pulsing, thinking, weary hours
Dreaming of my time spent homeward
Pulsing, thinking, weary hours
Dreaming of my time spent homeward
Tennessee, Tennessee
Tennessee, Tennessee
