[Verse 1]
Your blue dress caught on the screen door wire
I heard your daddy’s truck turn down the lane
You said, “Just one minute,” with your hand in mine
And kissed me like we’d never meet again
[Pre-Chorus]
Dust on your shoes, my jacket on your shoulders
The county line was calling us away
[Chorus]
We stole a kiss where the old mill meets the river
Ran laughing through the fields till the dark went thin
You wore my ring on a chain beneath your collar
I wore your lipstick like a badge beneath my grin
If loving you was trouble, we were born to make it
Two hearts wide open, no good alibi
We had one wild night and a whole life waiting
So we held on close while the world rolled by
[Verse 2]
We found a jukebox humming in a roadside bar
Your bare feet tapping on the cracked-up tile
You told me how you’d leave by harvest time
Then changed the subject, stayed another mile
[Pre-Chorus]
The moon kept watch above the water tower
Your whispered “maybe” sounded like a vow
[Chorus]
We stole a kiss where the old mill meets the river
Ran laughing through the fields till the dark went thin
You wore my ring on a chain beneath your collar
I wore your lipstick like a badge beneath my grin
If loving you was trouble, we were born to make it
Two hearts wide open, no good alibi
We had one wild night and a whole life waiting
So we held on close while the world rolled by
[Bridge]
Morning found your note beside the coffee
“Don’t come looking,” written in your hand
But every mile between us kept on turning
That one night into more than either planned
[Final Chorus]
We stole a kiss where the old mill meets the river
Ran laughing through the fields till the dark went thin
You wore my ring on a chain beneath your collar
I kept your last goodbye beneath my skin
If loving you was trouble, I still wouldn’t trade it
Two hearts wide open, no good alibi
We had one wild night and a whole life waiting
And I still see you when the fields roll by
[Outro]
Your blue dress caught on the screen door wire
I still hear that truck turn down the lane
