LYRICS:
Something happens when it feels so right
You’re wide awake dreaming in the middle of the night
It could have been the whiskey or the pale grass moon
But that’s what happened when I met you
Well I never was one to dream of wearing white
Maybe we could do it our way if that’s alright
Ride on the wind till we get where we’re going to
Doesn’t matter where as long as it’s with you
‘Cause I could love you for good
I could love you for always
I could love you the rest of my nights and the rest of my days
I could sing it like the mourning dove
I could watch you like the stars above
I could hold you with all that I’m made of
Won’t you take me to the old dance hall
We’ve got a lifetime to figure it all
Just wanna sway in your arms so I don’t forget
They say it’s gonna change, don’t let it change yet
‘Cause I could love you for good
I could love you for always
I could love you the rest of my nights and the rest of my days
I could sing it like the mourning dove
I could watch you like the stars above
I could hold you with all that I’m made of
Something happens when it feels so right
You’re wide awake dreaming in the middle of the night
Well it could have been the whiskey or the pale grass moon
It could have been the spell of the lilac bloom
It could have been the spell of the lilac bloom
But I could love you for good
I could love you for always
I could love you the rest of my nights and the rest of my days
I could sing it like the mourning dove
I could watch you like the stars above
I could hold you with all that I’m made of
