Lyrics
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
I toss and turn as the sun sinks low
Countin' regrets that won't let go
Your ghost wanders the town we once knew
Here ... somewhere down in Georgia
[Verse 2]
For the love that's lost, the cost is real
A dusty road that we walked down
Wearing our smiles, now it's just frowns
The whispering pines hold secrets we spilled
Gone ... somewhere down in Georgia
down in Georgia
[Chorus]
So here's a toast to the dreams we had
Just another dream left unfulfilled
Remembering your laugh, so soft and sweet
Where the river bends and our love once grew
Drifting ... somewhere down in Georgia
[Verse 3]
The moon hangs low, its fading light
Knows the truth of that July night
We drew our names in the sand, so sweet
Now lost ... somewhere down in Georgia
... somewhere down in Georgia
So I'll raise my glass to the love that's gone
Drown the heartache and the quiet pain
Hurting ... somewhere down in Georgia
[Verse 4]
The stars up high, their shine is not the same
Ever since the night I whispered your name
I hear the horn of an old freight train
Echo in the night and I curse the pain
Your light's burnt out, but I still burn for you
In a roadside bar, playing old sad tunes
[Pre-Chorus]
That smile of yours, girl, it would light up a room
Now I'm just sit in the dark and the gloom
tunes
That smile of yours, it would light up a room
Now I just sit in the dark and the gloom
[Chorus]
So here's a toast to the dreams we had
Just another dream left unfulfilled
Remembering your laugh, so soft and sweet
Where the river bends and our love once grew
Wandering ... somewhere down in Georgia
[Verse 5]
Barstool's etched with stories untold
Of heartache and dreams that we once did hold
I'm drowning the past with each shot I pour
But I can't forget who I'm drinkin' for
[Chorus]
So here's a toast to the dreams we had
Just another dream left unfulfilled
Remembering your laugh, so soft and sweet
Where the river bends and our love once grew
Crying ... somewhere down in Georgia
pour
But I can't forget who I'm drinkin' for
[Chorus]
So here's a toast to the dreams we had
Just another dream left unfulfilled
Remembering your laugh, so soft and sweet
Where the river bends and our love once grew
Crying ... somewhere down in Georgia
