If you ever come to Tennessee I'd love to show you around Introduce you to all the previous versions of me And be your personal tour guide through my home town Facetime just doesn't do this justice I want to hold you in my arms So please wait for me for a few more months It'll be over before you know it And long distance is hard, but it isn't as strong as us I don't mean to sound naïve I just know that I can't love you unless you let me So if you're willing to wait this out And take a trip to the deep south I'll show you why so many songs are about Tennessee If we ever get the chance to meet Think I'll kiss you on the spot Stop being so scared of what might be And instead be scared of what might not FaceTime just doesn't do us justice I gotta hold you in my arms So please wait for me for a few more months It'll be over before you know it And long distance is hard, but it isn't as strong as us I don't mean to sound naïve I just know that I can't love you unless you let me So if you're willing to wait this out And take a trip to the deep south I'll show you why so many songs are about, Tennessee If my fears come to fruition And this ends before you can visit me I still hope one day you'll go on your own I don't need to see you to see it I know that you'll love Tennessee And you'll agree the sky is just as big here as it is at home But please wait for me for just a few more months It'll be over before we know it And long distance is hard but is it stronger than us? I don't mean to be naïve I know I can't love you unless you let me But if you try to wait this out I'll book you a flight to the deep south And show you why I wrote this song about Tennessee Maybe I always knew It wasn't gonna last The inconvenient truth Is you can't love someone into loving you back So even if I didn't always know, I probably should have Maybe I always knew It was gonna end like this If it seems too good to be truth it usually is So even if I didn't always know I definitely should have Hindsight's 2020 I should have known the ending before it ever happened Based off patterns and attention, gambling addictions I rarely learn but even when I do I never listen
