Song Lyrics by: Michael Sean Perry

When I walk through the streets of our hometown

I sense you’re at every crossway

Like a feeling’s been stitched in me each Spring

The mountains bloom and the air smells like you

Blowing through downtown

Pushing Winter’s leaves aside

Everywhere around here just reminds me of

The places that you’ve been

My friend I miss you

Missed my chance during that dance to kiss you

There ain’t no time in a short life for regret

I know you don’t live around here anymore

Though everyone sure remembers you

Saw y’all went and sold your momma’s store

Heard you married and moved to Durham

Had two daughters with him

Bet they’re growing up blonde and tall

With pretty green eyes like you

Seems you’re not married anymore

You did your best and now you’re through

If your broken heart will set, your love life ain’t over yet

Try it out on me

Love’s meant to be

Done tried your best before, now you are free

Try it out on me

It’s clear to see

Now is the right time for our love to be

My home ain’t where it used to be

Though somehow I feel my heart still is

Even though there are three states in between

Every chance I get I’ll drive to see you

And bring my Brindle Dog along

Someday you’ll meet my sons

I will tell them back when your dad was young

She was the one that got away

Boys life is funny

Every day is a new chance to be happy

Try it out on me

Love’s meant to be

Done tried your best before, now you are free

Try it out on me

It’s clear to see

Now is the right time for our love to be

There ain’t no time in a short life for regrets
