Lyrics
Sometimes the only thing you find
Sometimes, the only thing discovered is falling too deeply.
Is that you fell way too hard
Feeling the impact of a profound fall.
Sometimes you find yourself
Finding oneself in solitude in a cold and dark place.
Alone in the cold and dark
Expressing the sense of isolation and darkness.
You and me we got different paths, love's grown wild and moving fast
Acknowledging divergent paths in a relationship, with love evolving rapidly.
So why don't you hang around
Inviting the other person to stay and witness the explanation.
And I'll show you what I'm talking about
Committing to illustrate the speaker's perspective.
You got ripped jeans, holding my arm tight, stealing my heart in the pale moon light
Describing a moment with specific details, like ripped jeans and a romantic setting under the moon.
Singing along to old country songs, strawberry wine where the cool grass grows
Recalling shared experiences, such as singing to old country songs and enjoying strawberry wine in a serene environment.
Making my mind spin around and round
Emphasizing the impact of the relationship on the speaker's emotions.
Making love on the outskirts of town
Highlighting intimate moments occurring on the outskirts of town.
Baby you, me, we, are forever bound
Declaring a lasting connection between the speaker and the other person.
Well I used to be a rambling man
Reflecting on a past life as a wanderer, seeking something elusive.
I was loving on and searching for something
Expressing the search for love and meaning.
I never knew how much would change
Acknowledging unexpected and transformative change.
And I still don't believe to this day
Maintaining disbelief about the magnitude of change.
How that brown eyed beauty from way down south
Referencing a significant person with brown eyes from the southern region.
Walked into my life and turned me around
Describing the impact of this person on the speaker's life.
Stopped me searching and gave me a home
Conveying a sense of home and belonging provided by the person.
Made me feel I was where I belong
Expressing gratitude for feeling at home with the significant other.
You got ripped jeans, holding my arm tight, stealing my heart in the pale moon light
Reiterating specific details of an intimate moment.
Singing along to old country songs, strawberry wine where the cool grass grows
Recalling shared experiences, continuing the nostalgic theme.
Making my mind spin around and round
Describing the impact of the relationship on the speaker's thoughts and emotions.
We were making love on the outskirts of town
Repeating the motif of intimate moments on the outskirts of town.
Baby you, me, we are forever bound
Reaffirming the enduring connection between the speaker and the other person.
Thirty years down the road, married with three kids
Projecting into the future, envisioning a family with three kids.
In a home of our own maybe down in Austin
Contemplating settling down, possibly in Austin.
Telling the kids the stories from the past and they will smile and laugh
Envisaging sharing past stories with children who respond with joy.
When I tell them how
Anticipating fond memories, particularly related to romantic moments.
Mom had her ripped jeans, holding my arm tight, stealing my heart in the pale moon light
Reiterating specific details of intimate moments, now in the context of family life.
Singing along to old country songs, strawberry wine where the cool grass grows
Recalling shared experiences, maintaining a nostalgic tone.
Making my mind spin around and round
Describing the impact of the enduring relationship on the speaker's thoughts.
We were doing homework on the outskirts of town
Depicting a domestic scene of doing homework on the outskirts of town.
Baby you, me, we, are forever bound
Reaffirming the enduring connection between the speaker and the other person.
