if you ever make it back to Nashville
remember you have still got a friend
I'll meet you at the Parthenon
that's the place we always went

it's been so dull since you left Nashville
I've read the same books again & again
it makes me wish I wasn't bashful
when it comes to other men

but if I could have my way
Darling you'd come home

remember when you moved to Nashville
& the first time that we kissed
remember when your mother found us
remember that you're sorely missed

& when you make it back to Nashville
we'll forget all of your sins
& I still buy two pairs of everything
so when you come home you & I'll be twins

because if I could have my way
I wouldn't be alone
