Lyrics

Woke up this morning to a south west wind
Blowing gentle'cross my skin
It was like that breeze was heaven scent
It just took me back
To Texas nights in a Pontiac

Chorus)
When the world would stop at the county line
Back road mysteries and sweet blue eyes
I was her and she was mine
Like Natalie and James Dean
Chasin' down a dream

We were running on spare change and gasoline
Love was young wild and free
And we dreamed about leaving when we hit eighteen
Wrote our names on the over pass
Swore our love would always last

Chorus)
When the world would stop at the county line
Back road mysteries and sweet blue eyes
I was her and she was mine
Like Natalie and James Dean
Chasin' down a dream

Bridge)
Now when this big world comes closing in
She kisses me and it's just like when

Chorus)
When the world would stop at the county line
Back road mysteries and sweet blue eyes
I was her and she was mine
Like Natalie and James Dean
Chasin' down a dream
