A girl from Tennessee meets a boy that could be The link to what has been missing He was from the south and we knew all about The art of loving and kissing It was late one night, no one thought it was right He left my life in disaster Now those days are gone, but I'll keep holding on Hoping to bring back the laughter Since he went away to this very day I still cry myself to sleep at night Any fool should know that I can't let go He's just angry 'cause we had a fight He'll come back and things will turn out right Just me and you That's what I'm used to The things that we do That's what I'm used to When they played our song, he would hum right along We used to hum it together I was seventeen when he came on the scene I knew this love was forever All the girls in town say that he put me down They just don't know what they're saying He'll be back in time when he makes up his mind To put an end to this playing Since he went away to this very day I still cry myself to sleep at night Any fool should know that I can't let go He's just angry 'cause we had a fight He'll come back and things will turn out right
