Love Changes Everything - John Michael Montgomery

Before my second year of college, you were barely seventeen

I was haulin' hay for your Daddy, an' you brought me a glass of tea

To a farm boy from Oklahoma, you were small town Texas prize

An' every young man’s dream in cut-off jeans, with that Homecoming Queen smile

You were makin' fun of my farmer’s tan an' I was lettin' you

An' fightin' bull in the July heat, tryin' to keep my cool

An' the prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced

It just got hotter as the summer passed

An' that first kiss stole our breath away

An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered

The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river

We both knew we’d never be the same:

'Cause love changes everything

I think your Daddy wondered but I know your Momma knew

'Cause she pulled me aside one Friday night and said take good care of you

We’d steal away after supper to our favorite place in the sand

By the red water’s edge where we’d hold hands while the sun melted into the land

We lost more than sleep on one hot August night

By mornin' we were seein' some things for the very first time

An' the prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced

Just got hotter as the summer passed

An' that first touch stole our breath away

An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered

The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river

We both knew we’d never be the same:

'Cause love changes everything

I never found my way back to college

An' we found other loves since then

But that first one will live forever

'Cause I’ll always remember when:

Those prairie wind sang while the dust devils danced

Just got hotter as the summer passed

An' that first kiss stole our breath away, ohhhh

An' the breeze died down as our hearts surrendered

The moonlight shattered as it crashed on the river

We both knew we’d never be the same:

'Cause love changes everything

Whoa love changes everything, yeah
