Lyrics

drove the Blue Ridge Parkway in an early morning haze
now the Smokey Mountains feel like they’re a million miles away
couldn’t get there fast enough, but didn’t have a clue
exactly where we were heading to
the radio was waving us through Eastern Tennessee
and Rocky Top was more than just a song that we would sing
I started waiting tables and you worked behind the bar
and all the while were reaching for the stars
time goes by while we’re busy making plans
too busy dreaming to see the good things we had
looking back I’d do it all again, but be thankful…
and we moved once and we moved twice and then we moved again
and ended up not far away from where it all began
everything was changing but if we’d have only known
when we were together we were home
time goes by while we’re busy making plans
too busy dreaming to see the good things we had
looking back I’d do it all again, but be thankful…
