Travis Tritt - Never Get Away From Me (For Waylon And Jessi) lyrics

I was a real Casanova in my home town Never really thought about settlin' down That is until you came around Yeah, it's been a few years but I remember it well I was a rowdy no-gooder, you were hotter than hell I spent all my time hot on your trail You could've run to the mountains Cou've sailed across the deep blue sea I knew from the start I couldn't let you get away from me Well, your mama and your daddy, they didn't approve They told me I was trash and I was born to lose But that didn't faze me, I was gonna have you So, I begged and I pleaded something I'd never done As sure as tomorrow has a rising sun There was no mistake, honey, you were the one You could've run to the mountains Could've sailed across the deep blue sea But one thing's for sure You would never get away from me The sweetest things in life take you by surprise Like the heaven I see lookin' in your eyes Though you weren't sure how an outlaw's love would be I made up my mind not to let you get away from me (Break) As we get a little closer to our rocking chairs I think back on the good life that we have shared And how our love has grown down through the years So snuggle up to me baby, turn out the lights There's nowhere on this earth I'd rather be tonight Than lying in your arms holdin' you tight As time rolls by one thing's still clear to see I'd have been a fool to let you get away from me Yeah, yeah you could've run to the mountains Could've sailed across the deep blue sea But I'd have been a fool to let you get away from me
