|
It was a two lane north of Casper |
|
Is where this all begins |
|
Heading back to Oklahoma |
|
For a week to visit friends |
|
She was walking on the highway |
|
So I pulled off to the side |
|
And asked her is she needed a ride |
|
We tore up that old blacktop |
|
Til' we found I-25 |
|
And just into Colorado |
|
She asked if she could drive |
|
I never met nobody like her |
|
I never laughed so much |
|
And I grew hungry for her touch |
|
(Chorus) |
|
I used to think of autum |
|
As sweaters and leaves |
|
And I used to think the night |
|
Was just for dreamers and theives |
|
But that was before she came |
|
Allison Miranda was her name |
|
By the time that we hit Kansas |
|
We both felt pretty beat |
|
So we found our selves a motel |
|
And grabbed a bite to eat |
|
And we'd rest for a few short hours |
|
Soon we'd be out of there |
|
Three days later we came up for air |
|
(Repeat Chorus) |
|
Now I can't forget the morning |
|
I woke alone in bed |
|
To a rose left on her pillow |
|
And a goodbye note that read |
|
You can not grow a flower |
|
If you do not have a seed |
|
Now I've got everything I need |
|
(Repeat Chorus) |
|
Oh, it was her name |
