[Tim McGraw - Annie I Owe You A Dance lyrics]

I was running late again
Picking up a few things
And there you were on aisle thirteen
I felt that old rush
When you saw me you blushed
Like you did when you were sweet sixteen
They said you looked lost on the dance floor
With a lonely look in your eyes
Don't know why I didn't show
To this day I still don't know
For once I wish I hadn't thought twice
Then your folks split up and
You moved to Colorado
And I headed out to Tennessee
Heard you got married and you moved back home
Here we are again, you and me

It's no surprise the light
In your little girl's
Eyes shines like the ring on your hand
Annie, I owe you a dance

Don't the years fly by in
The blink of an eye?
Yeah, loves, I've had a few
I've been a million places and
I've seen a million faces
But, I couldn't stop thinking 'bout you
Remember how we'd talk for hours?
Keeping each other's secrets
Made a promise I'd take you to homecoming
But, Annie, I didn't keep it
Almost called you up when I played in Boulder
But, I thought I'd just let it be
Heard you found yourself a real good man
Do you ever think of you and me?

It's no surprise the light
In your little girl's
Eyes shines like the ring on your hand
Annie, I owe you a dance

So put your groceries in the
Basket, I'm so sorry, now I'm asking
Like I should have twenty years ago
And I know it's all over
I'm just looking for some closure
And there's a song on the radio
You give me your hand and we start to dance
The cashier gives us a smile
As you turn and walk away
I hear your little girl say
"Momma, who was that guy?"

I shouldn't be surprised the
Forgiveness in your
Eyes gave me a second chance
Annie, thanks for the dance
