You were sitting on the front porch
With a wine glass in your hand
North side of Waxahatchee
Where I tried to make a stand
I sit down beside you
You smiled and I said "hi!"
I knew I had to have you
And I knew that I'd die trying
And you looked just like an angel
Like I never seen before
I was all the way from Georgia
Where I gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love
When I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you
For giving me this life
I'll always hear about you
From that night the time drag on
And when I was around you
Play cool and not let on
And I was crazy about you
But your age was 17
I knew how much I loved you
I just hoped that you loved me
And you looked just like an angel
Like I never seen before
I was all the way from Georgia
Where I gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love
When I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you
For giving me this life
And six years 'till today
Music play, we sang along
North side of StevenVille
Where I used to rock my songs
Now three years we've been married
Still in love and singing songs
From the south side of Austin
That's where we make our home
And you looked just like an angel
Like I never seen before
I was all the way from Georgia
Where I gone to fought the war
I knew that I had fell in love
When I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you
For giving me this life
And you still look like an angel
Like I never seen before
I was just a boy from April
Who came back from a fight in war
I knew that I had fell in love
When I drove away that night
I wanted to say thank you
For giving me this life
I wanted to say thank you
For giving me this life
