Roger Adams - A Heart in Tennessee lyrics

She’s got eyes As big as Colorado She’s got skin Like Miami Beach She’s got a smile as big as Texas And a heart that lives in Tennessee She always dreamed That one day love would find her She’s always held on to a dream She bowed her head at night, cold and lonely And she asked, one simple thing Can you make me smile Can you make me live Can you take this burden off my back that makes me weak You’re all I have That I can talk to I just need a helping hand to hold, along my way Can you promise to make me feel that way But she stayed so sad and lonely She dreamed of one and only She’d lie in bed with her eyes full of tears And her hopes were slowly fading And she stopped anticipating As days and weeks, turned into years And Then one day Right out of nowhere A chance at love caught her eye As she smiled, she felt her heart beating For the first time, in her life And now those eyes as big as Colorado Found a man there in Tennessee As they laid down at night, she softly asked him Can you promise me, these simple things Can you make me smile Can you make me live Can you take this burden off my back that makes me weak You’re all I have That I can talk to I just need a helping hand to hold, along my way Can you promise to make me feel that way And she’s got eyes as big as Colorado
