Her eyes welled up with tears He asked her twice to come along The marquee misspelled his name And he asked her twice to come along Someday he'll tell her about the money he hid "That Ol' Wind"****
She dropped her boy at school on time
One less worry on her mind
Now it's off to work and on the radio
Comes an old familiar song
And then the DJ's voice comes on
And says he's back in town tonight for one last show
God could it be it's been ten years
Since that Autumn night outside the county fair
When two strangers shared a night
And in the darkness found a light
That to this day is still alive and burning there
They said good-bye at the break of dawn
'Cause you can't hold back the wind
If it's meant to be again
Then someday he'll find his way back to her arms
And not too many people came
But that didn't matter to them
They laughed and loved all through the night
And as they faced the mornin' light
They found themselves standing there again
They said good-bye at the break of dawn
And as his bus left out she cried
With him standin' by her side
That ol' wind had once again found its way home
And someday she'll tell him that the boy is his kid
But for right now they're both in love
The only thing they're thinkin' of
Is that they're finally where their hearts have always been
