Thought Of You lyrics

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the It’s About Time Album. It has also been released on the Country Classics album.


It’s been almost a year since that beautiful weekend
It was more than a lifetime ago
How it happens to mind after all of this time
And brings tears to my eyes I don’t know

It’s the thought of you
And the way that it hurts to be so much in love
The thought of you
Brings it all my way

I know that it’s late, I’m sorry I called
I’m surprised to have found you at home
It’s just once in awhile I remember your number
I was hoping that you’d be alone

For I thought of you
And the way you can turn it around with a smile
The thought of you
Brings it all my way

I know that it’s over, but I can’t discover a way to erase how I feel
I remember the nights and the passionate fights and I know that I love you and I always will

And I want you to know that I’m always here for you
Any day, any night, any time
It happened before, it could happen once more
There’s a chance that you might change your mind

For I thought of you
And the way that it feels to be safe in your arms
The thought of you
Brings it all my way

I know that it’s over, but I can’t discover a way to erase how I feel
I remember the nights and the passionate fights
And I know that I love you and I always will
It’s been almost a year since that beautiful weekend
It was more than a lifetime ago
