[Verse 1] You wearing that black dress, coat, and cowboy boots He was there, but I didn't care, to busy staring at you In the pouring rain, with the blue lights flashin', in the hills of Appalachian Close to tears with your makeup smeared, I asked you what had happened [Chorus] But I know she ain't ready She won't be for awhile And he broke her down When I'm around I can see it in her smile She's finally getting closer It's just to plain to see And I know she ain't ready But that's alright with me [Verse 2] You wearing that red dress, pearls, and those high heels Like the way he made you look, you look the way it made you feel So I said to you I sure like to do this one here You said me too, but I'm just not over him [Chorus] [Bridge] She started calling me baby, and two years later I was down on a knee With a ring in hand, I said "I'm your man, and girl, will you marry me?" [Chorus 2] She said you know that I'm ready And I have been for awhile When the bells sound and you turn around I'll be walking down the aisle This will only bring us closer It's just to plain to see And I know that we're ready So that's alright with me That's alright with me
