(And he laid it right down on her stone)
(And we both cried the whole way home)
Caught you lookin' at a picture
Back when you were with her
Never seen you smile like that
I ain't even mad, no
Such a long time ago
I know that the past has passed
She was an Oklahoma beauty queen
And that ain't gonna ever be me
(That ain't gonna ever be me)
So I can't help but wonder
If I'll ever live up to Tulsa
You swear to me you're happy
That you couldn't live without me
But it still stings a little
Like I'm playing second fiddle
Will she always be the one you're getting over?
Am I just almost Oklahoma?
Do you wish that it was still her
Sleeping on your shoulder?
Wish that you could have it all back
Every time we kiss
Do you feel like something's missing?
What is it that I don't have?
I try so hard to be the one
But will I ever get that kind of love?
(Will I ever get that kind of love?)
And I can't help but wonder
If I'll ever live up to Tulsa
You swear to me you're happy
That you couldn't live without me
But it still stings a little
Like I'm playing second fiddle
Will she always be the one you're getting over?
Am I just almost Oklahoma?
So we drove out on 44
And stopped at that old flower store
One bouquet for me and one for her
And he laid 'em right down on her stone
And we both cried the whole way home
And I can't help but wonder
If I'll ever live up to Tulsa
You swear to me you're happy
That you couldn't live without me
But it still stings a little
Like I'm stuck here in the middle
Will she always be the one you're getting over?
Am I just almost Oklahoma?
