A hot August night, I saw her by the jukebox light
Her beauty captivated me
Thanks to a dare, I walked over there
Then we talked ‘til she had to leave
I was sad she couldn’t stay
But that feeling went away
Yeah, she smiled – she smiled back at me
She smiled back at me – she smiled back at me
The time slowed to a crawl, right then I had it al
High on life and not afraid to fall
When she smiled back at me
The following June, our passion was is bloom
I wanted to have her for my wife
Because of her past, she felt the need to ask
A question weighing on her mind
She wondered if I loved her too
And I simply said “I do”
Repeat Chorus
I’ve traveled overseas, drove a million miles
But the best scenery is always a smile
In early May, a baby’s on the way
I felt my life was now complete
But I questioned me, and the father I would be
When I saw that cotton sheet
As I held her through the night
All she did was cry
But at the break of day
All the tears they seemed to dry
Repeat Chorus
