Montana Skies
a passing glance is all it took
how could it be that with just one look
you turned my whole world upside down
dont think about the past
it wont help us last
and we can stand the test of time on our own
Montana dont cry
over Tennessee skies
cause im here to take away all those sad sighs
and baby dont ya go
cause then youll never really know
just where it is that my heart lies
my heart wont lie to you
every word i said
id bet youd bet it were true
years comin on faster than expected
and with every passing moment another memory collected
and stored away with all that youve given me.
so Montana dont cry
over unfamiliar skies
youre sure ill never leave your side
our babies will go soon
and well be alone too
counting down the days to our last sunrise.
one last dance
and a kiss good bye
under a purple sky
60 years and we never asked why
we were never the kind for questions
but always a different answer dancin
inside our hearts
under Tennesse grass
but in the clouds we rest
after out bodies have died
now headed to the best days of our lives
over, Montana...skies
