That song can't bring my mother back to life
But for three minutes it's like she's sitting in the livin' room
That song can't bring me back to high school
But I can feel the bleachers underneath the small town moon
That song can't get me to Amarillo
Before his flight takes off so I can change his mind
That song can't make him love me
Stop him from leaving us behind
I know a song can't fix everything
But tonight, sitting here with this drink
I'm gonna play it over and over, till all the tears run dry
Gonna give it one hell of a try
I remember the first time I heard his voice
Through the speakers of my mother's Oldsmobile
When my whole life was stretched out ahead of me
Before I started spinning these wheels
I know that song like the back of my hand
I've heard it at least a million times
When my life gets like this, I put it on repeat
I know why I like the reasons to the rhymes
I know a song can't fix everything
But tonight, sitting here with this drink
I'm gonna play it over and over, till all the tears run dry
Gonna give it one hell of a try
That song kept me on the road for a solid year
It's the last song that I sing every night
I know a song can't fix everything
But for a moment, it makes us all feel alright
