Dustin Lee Martin - Brittany's Blue Eyes

Walkin' down the highway
Thumb out in the road
Tryin' to hitchhike back to Nashville
On that long lonely way back home
When a girl in a beat up Chevrolet
Stopped and opened her door
And her voice took me back a ways
When she said, "Hey boy, where you goin'?"

'Cause she had Brittany's blue eyes
Blue as the summertime skies
I couldn't help but see, every time she looked at me
She was a livin', breathin' memory
I only wanted conversation but I just couldn't ease my mind
She made me want to get high, and go back to a better time
When I could see forever in Brittany's blue eyes

It was all I could do to climb in And not stare like a fool
'Cause every single thing about her
From her long dark hair down to her boots
Aw, they made me think about back home
And how forever could've went
Yeah, and now I've got this stranger
And she don't know where I've been

'Cause she had Brittany's blue eyes
Blue as the summertime skies
I couldn't help but see, every time she looked at me
She was a livin', breathin' memory
I only wanted conversation but I just couldn't ease my mind
She made me want to get high, and go back to a better time
When I could see forever in Brittany's blue eyes

Almost into Nashville
With the rain coming down
She said I could stay a few more days
If you don't mind me hangin' around
Oh, but I couldn't let her know
I was dyin' inside
So I said goodbye
For what felt like the second time, to

'Cause she had Brittany's blue eyes
Blue as the summertime skies
I couldn't help but see, every time she looked at me
She was a livin', breathin' memory
I only wanted conversation, ain't it funny how two lives entwine
Tangled up in goodbye, she reminds me of good times
When I could see forever in Brittany's blue eyes
