Description
This song was written for a girl I'd been with but separated from when I deployed with the Navy. She moved on. I moved back to Texas when I returned home from my deployment. Years later, her relationship's turned really bad. She's admitted feelings for me. I'm moving to Austin for a new start and pleading with her to meet me there.
Lyrics
(v1) You say you’ve come to realization And I could be the one So where in that lies complication I never really let go love It’s true this road we’ve traveled It’s left scars and that’s too bad But baby there’s no one out there Who’s ever touched me like you have Please meet me in Austin x2 (v2) Well you’ve been strong out on that East Coast And you’ve made yourself a home But how often is it he’s cold And makes you feel so all alone Holdin’ on to someth---ing (punches) Just tryin’ to make it last And I’d die to be that someone… Just to have a chance Please meet me in Austin x2 (bridge) Don’t ask me to walk away this time I’ve been down that road Should I try, my heart… it will defy Cause we both know That deep down inside, you can build your dam so high But loves gonna break it and flow It’s not a matter of why, just a question do we try And I refuse to let go Please meet me in Austin x4 You say you’ve come to realization And I could be the one
