Lyrics

Back in 1994, I fell head over heels
For the boy next door
I prayed every night and day
For god to turn his head my way
Graduation, he moved on
Broke my heart like a counrty song
Must have cried two rivers long
Oh, but

Life goes on, and before too long
You figure out you're right where you belong
Its sad and its sweet
But if youre lucky it keeps goin'
On and on and on

Then came 1999, my heart broke
For the second time
Left me crying on the steps
Burned me down like a cigarette
Just like that and he was gone
My heart sunk like a ten pound stone
Had no right to do me wrong
Oh but

Life goes on, and before too long
You figure out you're right where you belong
Its sad and its sweet
But if youre lucky it keeps goin'
On and on and on

My momma always said:
That there'll be lessons that you learn
But you dont need to know more right now
But im learning as I go
And the more I learn I know
The less I wanna know any how

I finally found my whole world
A little boy and a little girl
Got me a man with a heart of gold
It all came back a hundred fold
I watch the gravel kickin up
As he pulls in the drive in his pick-up truck
I just smile at my good luck
Oh and

Life goes on, and before too long
You figure out you're right where you belong
Its sad and its sweet
But if youre lucky it keeps goin'
On and on and on
