Tennessee Sky

I was moving down to Tennessee

When you decided not to come with me

All the promises and diamond rings

Couldn't keep the girl I love with me

They say wounds heal with time

Just tell yourself "tomorrow's sun will rise"

But as we whispered our final goodbyes

I had to tell you what was on my mind

Just stay here

And wait for me to breathe again

To understand and believe

That you could really be leaving me

Why does the earth spin 'round

When my world is crashing down

Why does the sun shine bright

When I've lost the light of my life

Why did I fall in love

Why did I let my guard down

You were the first girl I ever loved

And you're the last one I'll ever trust

And I swear that I am trying to get over you

I've even got out with some other girls a time or two

But every one I meet reminds me of the one I lost

Which brings me right back to the moment where you broke my heart

Stay

And wait for me to breathe again

To understand and believe

That you could really be leaving me

Why does the earth spin 'round

When my world is crashing down

Why does the sun shine bright

When I've lost the light of my life

Why did I fall in love

Why did I let my guard down

You were the first girl I ever loved

And you're the last one I'll ever trust

Just stay

And wait for me to breathe again

Just stay

And wait for me to breathe

This Tennessee sky can't dry my eyes

'Cause you

You were the first girl I ever loved

And why does the earth spin 'round

When my world is crashing down

Why does the sun shine bright

When I've lost the light of my life

Why did I fall in love

Why did I let my guard down

You were the first girl I ever loved

And you're the last one I'll ever trust

I was driving down to Tennessee

Crossing rivers and mountain peaks

Hoping somewhere on the other side

There's a girl who can come and change my mind
