He's got a show just north of Phoenix. She'll drive twenty five miles to get there. Just to see his face and maybe say hello. He's a sleep in the back of his tour bus. Rolling down the interstate line. Dreaming about someone he once knew And he wants to know again.

He'd always dreamed of leaving. That small Kentucky life And not long after he life. She went off to school To get a degree and starts a family. That would soon fall apart.

Now she's got a seat in the front row. When he starts singing a song. She knows the words that he'll sing. And she starts singing along. Then he sings a song that he wrote for her. But when they were friends.

He looks down and sees her singing. Forgets the line of his song. They both and he smiles hello. And it's just like time stood still.

It was a reunion of the heart. It was a chance to start again. They've been apart for way to long. And their finally were their hearts have always been.

He asks her to meet him later. They talk about old times. And it's like they are still there. He asks "How's your momma." "And is your brother still in school." She's asks "How's the big life." "The fast cars and woman too."

With a nod of mutual agreement. A silence fills the room. Her smiling face watches his. As he thinks of what to say. He asks her "Won't you come with me. "I can show you a world you'll never see."

She looks at him with a sparkle gone from her eyes. "I can't leave won't you now. I've got so much going on. I've got a baby boy who needs his ma'am. And you've got this life on the road." He says "Your right it's just not our time." As she walks out the door.

It was a reunion of the hearts. It was a chance to start again. They've been apart for way to long. And their finally where. Their hearts have always been.

But to hold on to that moment. They both knew would be so wrong. They've got two separate lives. And no chance together. This is how it would be forever.

It was a reunion of the hearts. It was a chance to start again. They've been apart for way to long. And their finally where. Their hearts have always been.

He says goodbye after she gone. A d the one thing he regrets. Is that he never told her he loves her. And she never said it to. Maybe somewhere down the road. They'll have this chance again. And maybe this time things will turn out right. And their hearts can be where they've always been.
