lyrics

Tennessee

Words and Music by Trista Roddick and Richard Melvin Brown (SOCAN)

Verse 1:

I don't believe in losing sleep over things I should have done
But that don't stop these lonely nights on this journey that I'm on
She still finds her way, every night, straight into my dreams
Reminding me of what I lost, what I want, and what I need

Chorus 1:

Oh, the whiskey don't stop the memories, it just dulls away the pain
Of seeing her tears, of hearing her cry,
Of her begging me to stay
stay with her in Tennessee

Verse 2:

I'm surrounded by people every night, I feel lost, in a daze
And only the feel of her skin on mine will bring me back again
I could walk away, go find her, hope she hasn't changed
Pray that she'll forgive me though I left her on her own

Chorus 2:

Oh, the whiskey don't stop the memories, it just dulls away the pain
Keeps her out of my head, out of my dreams, keeps my mind where it should be
But it still drifts back to Tennessee

Chorus 3:
I'm on my way, heading home, I see nothing much has changed
All I can do is wait and hope that she's still waiting for me
Please be waiting, here in Tennessee
