I met her down In Tennessee She went by the name of Amelie she was a character anyone could see she had eyes just for me time will fly and the summer would end and I will never see her again and I hear thunder in my head when I wonder where she is and the river runs through a town and all of the stars out they're out tonight she's up on the rooftop lookin' down just staring at the river lit up with the city lights and I roll on years gone by the sun goes down on another sky and there is no where I'd rather be and there is no one I'd rather see where the river runs through a town and all the stars out out tonight she's up on a rooftop lookin' down just starin' down at the river with the city lights I shouldn't have been so torn up inside From losing what is hard to find But that's just the way The way it goes sometimes The way it goes sometimes
