We were born in this little town,
Growing up I was counting down,
Every single day,
'Til we made our getaway.
But you said you could never see yourself,
Trying to make a life anywhere else,
This would be your home,
And I was on my own.
But ever since you said goodbye,
I've been out here on the wind,
And baby you would be surprised,
All the places you have been.
CHORUS:
I've seen you in Albuquerque,
Waiting out a blizzard,
Arizona, dancing 'cross the desert,
Watching the sun set in Monterrey,
Girl, I swear just the other day,
You were, down in Georgia,
Picking 'em peaches,
Carolina, barefoot on the beaches,
No matter where you choose to be,
In my heart I'll always see you,
Everywhere.
Now a days, when I'm passing through,
The conversation always turns to you,
And I hear you're doing fine,
Living out by the county line.
Got a man that's home every night,
A couple of kids, and the kind of life,
That you wanna lead,
Guess you could say the same for me.
But you and I, made our choices,
All those years ago,
Still I know, I'll hear your voice,
And see you down the road.
CHORUS:
Maybe in Oklahoma,
Driving 'cross the prairie,
Dallas, Texas, isn't that where we,
Always said we would like to try,
Never did, so maybe that's why,
You're on, every highway,
Just beyond the highbeams,
Right beside me,
In all of my sweet dreams,
No matter where you choose to be,
In my heart I'll always see you in,
Albuquerque, waiting out a blizzard,
Arizona, dancing 'cross the desert,
Watching the sun set in Monterrey,
Girl, I swear just the other day,
You were, down in Georgia,
Picking 'em peaches,
Carolina, barefoot on the beaches,
No matter where you choose to be,
In my heart I'll always see you,
Everywhere.
Ooooh, mmmmm.
