I Love That Girl

Verse 1
One hot summer night, didn’t see it coming
Walked into a moment, heart started running
Didn’t know a glance could flip my whole world
Same damn smile… same girl

Years went by but the memories stayed
High school halls, by her locker we’d wait
Missed my chance, never took that shot
Now we’re here from roads we got

Couldn’t look away, something pulled me in
Still that girl I knew back then
Time stood still in that neon light
Got lost in her… felt so right

Pre-Chorus
Completely gone, yeah I lost control
She’s got a way of pulling at my soul

Chorus
One hot summer night, we were burning alive
Didn’t need a reason, didn’t question why
Passion like a spark that would never fade
Every move, every word, every risk we made

Weeks went by, now I’m falling fast
Every little moment, praying it would last
Her eyes, her smile, her wild, her sass
Yeah I fell hard… no taking that back

⸻

Verse 2
Passion wrapped tight, yeah we tangled deep
Dreaming out loud, losing track of sleep
Floating down Elkhorn creek, nowhere to be
Sunlight dancing… just her and me

Gym nights, long days, just chasing time
Breaking every rule, crossing every line
Didn’t see the end, didn’t feel the fall
Felt like forever… like we had it all

Pre-Chorus
Future in her eyes, I could almost see
The man I always said I’d be

Chorus
One hot summer night, we were burning alive
Didn’t need a reason, didn’t question why
Passion like a spark that would never fade
Every move, every word, every risk we made

Weeks went by, now I’m falling fast
Every little moment, praying it would last
Her eyes, her smile, her wild, her sass
Yeah I fell hard… no taking that back

⸻

Bridge
Then the past came knocking at my door
All those ghosts I tried to ignore
Fear crept in, couldn’t let it show
But I was scared to let her go

I love her now, I can’t lose this
Standing on the edge of everything we built
Do I run or do I stay?
Do I risk it all… or fade away?

⸻

Breakdown (soft)
She brought out something I can’t explain
Through every scar, through every pain
Friday nights, finding my truth
She lit a fire I lost in my youth

⸻

Final Chorus (big)
One hot summer night changed everything
Gave my heart a reason just to feel again
Through the fear, through the doubt, through the past I hide
She’s the reason that I’m still alive

Yeah weeks go by but it feels like fate
Every second with her I appreciate
Her eyes, her smile, her wild, her sass
Yeah I fell hard… and I ain’t looking back
