A single kiss behind the barn
A summer day on grandpa’s farm
Oak leaves blowing in the breeze
Blue sky shining through the trees
She was there
I was there

Her daddy lived just down the way
Her momma brought a pie
Baked that day
In that summer dress
With her long dark hair
I’d have followed her
About anywhere
She was there
I was there

That’s the way life could be
Gentle breeze and a shady tree
Someone smiling just for me
She was there
I was there
For a moment
We were there

A little creek across the road
Where my friends and I
We’d looked for toads
Water gurgled across the rocks
We left behind our shoes and socks
She was there
I was there

We splashed into that
Stream and laughed
Wondered down that slippery path
We were both just thirteen
Finding our way through
More than just that stream
She was there
I was there

How often do I ever know?
When I’ve reached a place
I want to go?
Looking back that’s one for sure
She was there
I was there
For a moment
We were there
We were there
