|
Dreamin' by the fire |
|
at the Gulf of Mexico |
|
Somebody's playin' a lovesong |
|
With a six string homesick tone |
|
Memories of summer |
|
the first time we made love |
|
And a promise left unspoken |
|
I saw in a shooting star |
|
The Southern wind was blowin' |
|
as if he wants to say |
|
The words I whispered in my heart |
|
only yesterday |
|
You're my only one - my risin' sun |
|
You're the air I wanna breathe |
|
Girl you're everything I need |
|
My shining star - that's what you are |
|
And as long my heart will beat |
|
You'll be everything - everything I need |
|
The fire is still burning |
|
I was humming to the song |
|
Couldn't think of all the words |
|
so I made them up my own |
|
Like a secret door that opens |
|
these words just set me free |
|
And the promise left unspoken |
|
was the owner of the key |
|
Oh Southern wind keep blowin' |
|
please carry me back home |
|
There's somebody who is waiting |
|
and I've gotta let her know |
|
You're my only one - my risin' sun |
|
You're the air I wanna breathe |
|
Girl you're everything I need |
|
My shining star - that's what you are |
|
And as long my heart will beat |
|
You'll be everything - everything I need |
|
And when Southern Winds are blowin' |
|
they might even bring some rain |
|
But the promise left unspoken |
|
will always be the same |
