Somewhere in the mountains of Tennessee
There’s a home, meant for you and me
Peonies growing in the yard
A grove of pecan trees
A path for walking every day
A bench to rest your feet
Somewhere in the mountains of Tennessee
A home for you and me
Room for all our animals, family and friends
A place to watch the sun set
A fire pit to for those chilly nights
Our door would always be open
The loving would never end
Somewhere in the mountains of Tennessee
There sits a home, no longer meant for you and me
You took your heart away
And hid it from me
And threw away our future plans
To grow old together
In the mountains of Tennessee
Tennessee
