Do it again (v1)
Listen
Lyrics
I met you at a party, a friend talked me into goin’
I almost stayed at home that night, never knowing what was coming
You were sitting on the porch, fresh drink in your hand
Something in the way you smiled made me want to see you again
That was the start of something beautiful
A once-in-a-lifetime chance
We laughed and joked and talked all night
Like we’d always known the dance
We fell in love under a blanket, in the summer pouring rain
The whole world disappeared to us,
Wasn’t something we could explain
If I could go back to that night
Knowing everything I know now
I wouldn’t change a single thing
I’d do it all again
Then the time came for a choice
Stay with you or serve Uncle Sam
Neither one of us was ready
For the distance in that plan
It wasn’t what you wanted
And it wasn’t what I dreamed
But lonely nights and miles between us
Tore apart what we had been
Still I’d fall in love beneath the rain
Let the whole world disappear
There was nowhere else I wanted to be
As long as you were near
Even knowing what came after
Every heartache, every pain
If I had the chance to live it over
I’d do it all again
Life got turned upside down
And we went our separate ways
Thirty years of moving on
Thirty years of different days
Time can change a lot of things
Lord knows, it changed me
But it never found a way to change
What you still meant to me
Then one night my heart started racing
When “Hi” lit up my phone
You said that I’d been on your mind
That I had always been the one
I could barely hold the tears back
When you said you missed me too
After thirty years of yesterday
There I was, talking to you
And I’d fall in love beneath the rain
Let the whole world disappear
After every road we traveled
Somehow we both ended here
If I could go back to that porch
Knowing everything I know now
I’d take your hand, I’d take that chance
I’d do it all again
Yeah, I’d take the laughter
I’d take the tears
I’d take the miles
And all those years
If loving you meant losing you
Then finding you again
I wouldn’t change a single thing
I’d do it all again
