Fishin’ Till It’s Time

I’m sittin’ on my boat, just fishin’ and thinkin’ of you,

The water’s calm, the sky’s on fire, fading from red to blue.

Got a cooler full of memories, a heart I can’t unwind,

Every cast I throw just reels you back in my mind.

That sun sinks low on this lonesome lake,

And I swear my heart can’t hardly take

Another mile between your shore and mine.

Yeah, I’m half tempted to drop this line,

Head your way and cross that county line.

You’re constantly on my mind,

But for now I’m fishin’ till it’s time.

The radio’s hummin’ an old George Strait tune,

And every word just sounds like you.

These dreams I’m reelin’ in tonight,

All end up with you by my side.

That sun sinks low on this lonesome lake,

And I swear my heart can’t hardly take

Another mile between your shore and mine.

Yeah, I’m half tempted to drop this line,

Fire it up and head for that county line.

You’re constantly on my mind,

But for now I’m fishin’ till it’s time.

When that last light fades and the stars come out.

I’ll crank that motor and head on out.

Headin’ home to where my heart’s been tied,

Straight to your arms, no detours this time.

Now the moon’s risin’ high on this peaceful night,

And I’m done fightin’ what feels so right.

You’ve been tuggin’ on my heart like a fishin’ line.

Yeah, I’m done sittin’ here wastin’ time,

I’m comin’ home to make you mine.

I was fishin’ but now it’s time.
