ten years ago, in the sleepy south
i was a brand new girl in a country town
i was on my porch, when a boy drove by
he slowed down his car, and he winked and smiled
when i see you, i still see that country boy
i see me powerless, enchanted, overjoyed
i know years have passed, this town has changed
but baby i still see you the same way
i fell in love with that country boy
i would call him baby, he would call me joy
we didn't have no nights, we didn't have no days
he lit up my steps, and i walked his way
when i see you, i still see that country boy
i see me powerless, enchanted, overjoyed
i know years have passed, this town has changed
but baby i still see you the same way
we'd go for walks to the country store
i didn't need no food, just wanted to be with you boy
you would smile at me, and i'd forget to speak
then you'd grab my hands, and my knees get weak
when i see you, i still see that country boy
i see me powerless, enchanted, overjoyed
i know years have passed, this town has changed
but baby i still see you the same way
we found ourselves in a country chapel
we were vowing love, nothing felt more natural
when i said i do, i saw you start to cry
and the whole town cheered, as we waved goodbye
when i see you, i still see that country boy
i see me powerless, enchanted, overjoyed
i know years have passed, this town has changed
but baby i still see you the same way (2X)
