Michael Winger - Tennessee

By the light of the moon
I was coming to you
By the light of the moon
In the light from above
It filled up my heart up with love
And I was waiting for you

But you want to believe
That there’s probably somewhere that’s better than here
If you want to believe
That there’s got to be somewhere that’s better than here

Take me with you
Take me with you
I want to get out of here I’ll go anywhere
Take me with you
Take me with you
I can’t stay here for all my life in Tennessee

The light in the trees on a cold winter’s eve
The light of the moon was hanging over you
Your breath I could see but I could barely believe
I’d been waiting and you were standing next to me

And you want to believe
That there’s probably somewhere that’s better than here
If you want to believe
That there’s got to be somewhere that’s better than here

Take me with you
Take me with you
I want to get out of here I’ll go anywhere
Take me with you
Take me with you
I can’t stay here for all my life in Tennessee

Go ahead and believe what you want to believe
But I don’t want be anywhere else than here
If you’re wanting to be with someone other than me
Then I don’t have to say anything else
The first thing I remember
Was a cold day in November
And I held you while you trembled
You promised me you’d never leave again

And the light of the moon
Was hanging like a balloon
The light of the moon was hanging over you
Your face bathed in blue
From the light that I knew
Was the best we could do and that’s enough for me

But you want to believe
That there’s probably somewhere that’s better than here
If you want to believe
That there’s got to be somewhere that’s better than here

Take me with you
Take me with you
I want to get out of here I’ll go anywhere
Take me with you
Take me with you
I can’t stay here for all my life in Tennessee
