We Were Alright

We hit the road

I said, tell me where you're wanting to be

And that's where we're gonna go

If it takes my life

I looked over at you

Had a smile on my face

And I noticed you were smiling too

Girl, you were smiling too

And for the first time in a long time

We were alright

Turned the radio on

And heard 'Luckenbach, Texas'

And you said it was your favorite song

Girl, you started singing along

Crossed state lines

I couldn't keep my eyes open

So, I stopped to see an old friend of mine

To get some sleep for a while

For the first time in a long time

We were alright

Woke by the phone

Heard your voice say I should come get my things

'Cause you were gonna be home

And you wanted them gone

Like a brick, it hit me

Everything I thought that happened that night

Well, it was only a dream

So I went back to sleep

What else could I do?

Tried to find my way back into that dream

So I could be close to you

So I could be close to you

'Cause for the first time in a long time

We were alright

Oh, for the first time in a long time

We were alright
