From The Word Go

My kind of walking the line was down the side of the highway
I thought I'd never get caught in the kind of love where I'd stay
Then I ran into you and my running was through
From the word go
I knew I'd found where the road ends and love begins
From the word go I knew I'd never go again
So many places I've been Lord knows the walking shoes I've worn out
But I knew after being with you I'd never been nowhere before now
All it took was a touch to stop my heart and start love
From the word go...
[ guitar ]
You stopped me right in my tracks there was no going back
From the word go...
From the word go...
From the word go...
