I Just Drove by Songtext

von Wynonna

I always go the other way
But my car drove me down today
To a little house
On the older side of town

Back when things were never hard
I used to play there in that yard
And I just drove by
To see if things had changed

Cokes were just a nickel then
And across the street at the five and ten
A lot of things
Were cheap and square and strange

And the life we had might have been
But it was one we loved believing in
And I just drove by
To see if things had changed

I wondered now
If love is still the way it was back then
I need to know
That life is still a place worth living in

There it is, just like it was
A house where there was always love
And I just drove by
To see if things had changed

In a world that's seen its better days
It's good to know some things remain the same
Though standing still
Is not time's way

Take to heart while in its spring
That love is just a fragile thing
I just drove by
To see if things had changed
Oh, I just drove by
To see if things had changed
