[Verse 1]
We hit the road
I said, tell me where you're wanting to be
And that's where we're gonna go
If it takes my life
[Verse 2]
I looked over at you
Had a smile on my face
And I noticed you were smiling too
Girl, you were smiling too
[Chorus]
And for the first time in a long time
We were alright
[Verse 3]
Turned the radio on
And heard 'Luckenbach, Texas'
And you said it was your favorite song
Girl, you started singing along
[Verse 4]
Crossed state lines
I couldn't keep my eyes open
So, I stoppеd to see an old friend of mine
To get somе sleep for a while
[Chorus]
For the first time in a long time
We were alright
[Bridge]
Woke by the phone
Heard your voice say I should come get my things
'Cause you were gonna be home
And you wanted them gone
Like a brick, it hit me
Everything I thought that happened that night
Well, it was only a dream
So I went back to sleep
[Verse 7]
What else could I do?
Tried to find my way back into that dream
So I could be close to you
So I could be close to you
[Chorus]
'Cause for the first time in a long time
We were alright
[Outro]
Oh, for the first time in a long time
We were alright
