VERSE

I was driving back west through the patches of fog
We had the brights turned on and we listened to songs
I didn t know it then but I was right where I needed to be.
You were back at home you were working a job
and you were hanging out nights with your friends at the bar.
You didn t know it then but you were right where you needed to be.

VERSE

I was waking up to the sound of the raindrops
while you while you were in the southeast sleepin in truck stops.

You were making friends with people I d never meet
and I was prayin to God that your band would succeed.
I didn t? know it then but you were right where you needed to be.

When all you have is what s inside your pocket
and all your dreams seem stuck up on the shelf,

My little girl, my precious child
Beautiful woman, veiled and sweet
I ll smile in disbelief
As the tears roll down my cheek
And then I ll whisper, softly
