My Heart Says Go (Waterman/Espe) - Recorded by Jessica Campbell

They were like Oil and Water between the laughter and crying

Oil and Water

[Verse 1]
We drove down  town 
 like we had nothing’ to hide.
Old  radio playing’ “Sweet Caroline,”
Didn’t know we were running’ out   of   time.

[Verse 2]
You laughed  like  a prayer,
Dancing’ barefoot like you didn’t have a care.
I said, “Girl, don’t you ever let go,”
You said, “Tonight’s all we get, don’t you know?”

[Chorus]
If I had known it was your last night alive,
I’d have held you closer 
Would’ve told you every secret I kept inside,
Would’ve kissed you longer, not let goodbye slide.
But I only see it now in the rearview light…
You gave me your heart on your last night alive.

[Verse 3]
The call came in just after 4 A.M.,
Your name etched deep in that blacktop mile,
But I swear I still see your   smile................

[Chorus]
If I had known it was your last night alive,
I’d have stopped the clock, let the stars collide.
Would’ve danced with you ‘til the break of light,
Would’ve begged the heavens for one more try.
But fate don’t knock, it just walks on by…
And takes what it wants on your last night alive.

[Bridge]
Now I sit by the river, talking ’ to the wind,
Reading' back memories like they’re letters you penned.
Still drive your roads, still play that song,
Still ask God why you couldn’t hold on...............
[Outro]
If I had known it was your last night alive,
I’d have said “I love you” one more time.
Held every tear, every breath, every sign,
Told the world to stop, just to rewind.
But you danced away in the blink of an eye…...............
Left me here living’ your last night alive.............................

last night alive,

I'm a born and raised Texan, so this is my tribute to the state and the many places in it.
