 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 D.J.'s voice comes on
 And  says he's back  in town tonight  for one last show
 Her  eyes well up with tears
 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
 He  asked her twice  to come along
 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
 
 The  marquee misspelled his name
 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 morning light
 They  found themselves  standing there  again
 And  he asked her twice  to come along
 They  said good-bye  at the break of dawn
 As  his bus left out she cried
 With  him standing by her side
 That  ol' wind had once  again found its  way home
 
 
 Someday  he'll tell  her about the money  he hid
 And  someday she'll tell  him that the boy is  his kid
 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
 ENDING: REPEAT INSTRUMENTAL BREAK 3 TIMES AND FADE OUT
