Lyrics

There's a cold wind blowin’ through the town tonight
Freezing stones & cobbles, shutting out the light
Stirring up the ghosts of ages past
Whistling down the alleyways, goin’ nowhere fast

CHORUS: You had those dreams of Nashville, dreams of Tennessee
But your love of this old river town
Kept them from you and you from me

It’s the same cold wind that blew you to my arms
One flash of your blue eyes I fell for all your charms
But the town seduced you too, it drew you in
Siren voices calling you I was never gonna win

CHORUS: YOU had those dreams of Nashville……

The songs you wrote took root among the stones
And now they’re weighing on your mind, on your heart & bones
My love for you will never die away
But I don’t think you’ll make it out you’ll always have to stay

CHORUS: YOU had those dreams of Nashville……

You’ve always loved this city more than me
There’s ties that bind but can’t you see
There’s no heart in this cold place
It’ll never match my warm embrace

So now I’m gonna have to say goodbye
I’m moving on to better things, ain’t gonna lie
This life is not for me I think you know
There's a cold wind blowin’ and
It’s time for me to go

CHORUS WE had those dreams of Nashville……
