Again

She said, California as a tear fell down her cheek
Small town missouri, this aint the life for me
Wave goodbye to mom and dad and all her friends
In that '97 mustang, that we both lost it in.
I cant recall the day i'd finally had enough
Of chasing my fathers dream instead of growing up
I turned in that uniform before i ever played a game
With a junior college scholorship, in a white trash town up state
You never know which way the road is gonna go when it bends
All i know is what i'd give today to feel that way again
I made the most of no degree here selling cars
On the west side of St. Louis, where most the rich folks are
From time to time i hear about some star you met
And just how close you come, but havent made it yet

It gets me thinking about the way it was and all we could have been
Wondering if you ever wished you could feel that way again (oh, feel that way again)
You never know which way the road is gonna go when it bends
All i know is what i'd give today to feel that way again
I cannot lie sometimes when i come back to town
I head down to the river, and i roll the windows down
Listen to that mississippi running through the night
It'll wash away the years and bring you back here by my side
It'll wash away the years
And bring you back here by my side

Yeah feel that way again
