QT's Place
My Tribute to George Strait
|
Fifteen years together
We climbed by work and will
From a simple two room cottage
to a mansion on the hill
Now there's roses in the garden
But it's the coldest place in town
It took fifteen years, goin' up
And one night comin' down
Fifteen years of heaven
For one short night of sin
From blue skies forever
To an end
From out on a mountain
To both knees on the ground
Fifteen years, goin' up
And one night comin' down
Her dreams have all been shattered
Her faith in me is gone
My tears tell her I'm sorry
But they can't right my wrong
One night wrote my story
How a man can lose it all
After fifteen years goin' up
It's hard to take a fall
Fifteen years of heaven
For one short night of sin
From blue skies forever
To an end
From out on a mountain
To both knees on the ground
Fifteen years, goin' up
And one night comin' down
I've been fifteen years goin' up
And one night comin' down
