George Strait blastin' in the background |
|
County fair big night in a small town |
|
Barely fifteen my dad had to drop us off |
|
Folded money tucked in my back pocket |
|
Only goal was walking out with none of it |
|
Our first date but I was already in love |
|
With that August moon hangin' low in the sky |
|
You reached out to touch it from the Ferris wheel ride |
|
You didn't know but I was holding on for dear life |
|
We went round and round till time stood still |
|
When I think about it now I still get a thrill |
|
We weren't meant for a lifetime |
|
But it was love for a little while |
|
Ice cream drippin' off a sugar cone |
|
Out of money didn't want to go home |
|
We snuck right in the door to the fun house |
|
Trick mirrors laughin' at the sight of us |
|
You were tall and skinny, I was short and buff |
|
Makin' faces till' the ticket guy chased us out |
|
With that August moon hanging low in the sky |
|
I leaned in to kiss you under the arcade lights |
|
You touched my hand and I felt like I could fly |
|
We went round and round till time stood still |
|
When I think about it now I still get a thrill |
|
We weren't meant for a lifetime |
|
But it was love for a little while |
|
Then August left and September came |
|
All we had were the memories |
|
Of that very first date |
|
With that August moon hanging low in the sky |
|
I leaned in to kiss you under the arcade lights |
|
Touched my hand and I felt like I could fly |
|
We went round and round till time stood still |
|
When I think about it now I still get a thrill |
|
We weren't meant for a lifetime |
|
But it was love for a little while |
