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.
It ain't often I take time to answer calls on the request line
But this one says that we're his best last chance
So all you people in radioland, turn it up loud, loud as you can
Help to carry these words of a desperate man
Chorus
Do you believe in love and that we were meant to be?
Two words can free us, so repeat them after me
"I do" from a boy in love to a girl called Tennessee
It's always scary when you find true love
It hits like lightning from high above
You might only get one chance to say
Repeat Chorus
He got scared and let her slip away
Now he knows he's not afraid
I'll put him on the air in case she's listening somewhere
Take it to heart, keep in mind
Try to reach out through the telephone line
Caller you're on the air, say it so she hears
Repeat Chorus
Oh woa
From a boy in love to a girl called Tennessee
Tennessee
