"Girl Named Tennessee" lyrics - NEEDTOBREATHE

They say this lasts forever
That's just what I'm afraid of
I've never dance like this again
She smiled like the Georgia summer
She laughs with the sound of thunder
I wanna dance like this again

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm not the marrying kind
I've said a thousand times
I've never danced like this before
She's got the prettiest shoes
And I love the way she moves
I wanna dance like this again

[Chorus:]
I was free and far from home
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinkin' love was not for me
Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Lights came down and the room spun slow
Started sayin' she had to go
Don't go baby, I didn't get your name
She said, "Don't worry, I did not say"
She danced away with my heart and soul
Who she was, I will never know
Danced away with my hopes and dreams
My sweet girl from Tennessee

[Chorus:]
I was free and far from home
I was young and on my own
I was blind as I could be
Thinkin' love was not for me
Till the night I met that girl named Tennessee

[Interlude]

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
