We were born in this little town, growin' up

I was countin' down every single day

'Til we made our get-away

But you said you could never see yourself

Tryin' to make a life anywhere else

This would be your home and I was on my own

But ever since you said goodbye

I've been out here on the wind

And baby, you would be surprised

All the places you have been

I've seen you in Albuquerque, waitin' out a blizzard

Arizona, dancin' 'cross the desert

Watchin' the sun set in Monterey

Girl, I swear just the other day

You were down in Georgia, pickin' them peaches

And Carolina, barefoot on the beaches

No matter where you choose to be

In my heart I'll always see you everywhere

Nowadays when I'm passin' through

The conversation always turns to you

And I hear you're doin' fine, livin' out by the county line

Got a man that's home every night

A couple of kids and the kind of life that you want to lead

Guess you could say the same for me

But you and I made our choices all those years ago

Still I know I'll hear your voice

And see you down the road

Maybe in Oklahoma, drivin' 'cross the prairie

In Dallas, Texas isn't that where we always said

We would like to try

But never did, so maybe that's why

You're on every highway just beyond the high-beams

Right beside me in all of my sweet dreams

No matter where you choose to be

In my heart I'll always see you

In Albuquerque, waitin' out a blizzard

And Arizona, dancin' 'cross the desert

Watchin' the sun set in Monterey

Girl, I swear just the other day

You were down in Georgia, pickin' them peaches

And Carolina, barefoot on the beaches

No matter where you choose to be

In my heart I'll always see you everywhere
