She was leaning on a rail
in a cotton dress
Summer tanned pretty
little perfect mess
With a story that could only
be anybody's guess
And I was thinking that
I probably didn't
stand a chance
But I rolled up my sleeves
walked up and I said
Hey I know I don't know you
but I'd kinda like a shot
She said I saw
you coming over
I already thought it over
And okay so now what
And I said well I got a car
She said there's something
At least it's a start
I said it's better than nothing
I ain't in no hurry
but I'm ready when you are
And she said
where do you think
all this is going
I said there ain't
no way of knowing
I guess I hadn't thought
it through that far
But I got a car
So we let the wheels turn
and the windows down
We let ourselves go
all the way through town
She never said stop
and I never asked her why
We drove into the night
when outta nowhere
She said I'd give anything
to never go back there
And I kinda wish this day
would never end
She said I could
use a change
but I don't even know
where to begin
And I said well I got a car
She said there's something
At least it's a start
I said it's better than nothing
I ain't in no hurry
but I'm ready when you are
And she said
where do you think
all this is going
I said there ain't
no way of knowing
I guess I hadn't thought
it through that far
And I can't promise you
the moon and stars
But I got a car
We got lost in the miles
Lost track of the days
'Til we finally found
a stopping place
When the doctor's said
you know what's
on the way
And we found ourselves
in a little white house
One Sunday morning
rain pouring down
She said I think it's time
but all the lines are out
And her eyes teared up
and she said
what are we
gonna do now
And I said well I got a car
She said there's something
You think it'll start
I said it's already running
Got your things in the back
and I'm ready when you are
She said are you sure
it'll get us where we're going
I said if there's one thing
I know girl
it's gotten us this far
And I don't mean to hurry
but I'm ready when you are
