Heard someone told you
That there's more to life then this little town
And you got to thinking of bigger dreams
And life beyond that line we drew down on old county road
You said you wish you knew if the lights of the city were as bright as they seemed
So you packed your things
Sold that old place, you once swore you'd never leave
And headed to the city with your new dreams
And a promise that you'd never change
I remember the last time I saw you
Standing there, bag in your hand
And your dreams on your mind
That whistle blew and you were waving
Waving goodbye
And I was wondering
If you'd ever miss me out there chasing your dreams
Someone told me
You had fallen in love
And you were making plans
And chasing dreams that shifted and changed
And I got to thinking
Do they know how'd we'd stay out all night
Listening to the sounds
And watching the stars
And you held my hand laying there in the cool grass
Do they know how'd we danced in the rain
Cause it was something you saw in an old movie
And you kissed me
With the whisper of a promise
I remember the last time I heard your voice
You called late one night
Talking of your plans
And the people you've met
And I began to wonder
If suddenly I was too small for your big city dreams
So I told you goodbye
And I swore I heard you cry
And I started to wonder
If you ever missed me out there chasing your dreams
Heard you were back in town
You chased your big city dreams
And danced beneath what you thought were the same stars
Laughed when it seemed right
And cried when your love walked away
So you packed your bags
When the lights of the city didn't seem so bright
Caught that last train home
And crossed that old faded line out on old county road
With your broken dreams in your hands
You laughed
And I cried
And I swore I heard you whisper; I missed you
And it wasn't the same without you
Out there chasing your dreams
I remember that very night
Standing in the rain
Your hands on my waist
With tears in your eyes
And a whisper of a promise
That this town was just the right size for you and your dreams
And you kissed me
