Drew Kennedy - Cincinnati Lyrics

A riverboat in Cincinnati
we were having fun, you smiled at me by the waters edge
before we went to bed
The city lights of the river
made me promise things, hope I can deliver in another year
Was it me or the beer

I didn’t know what you do to me
but every once in a while
I guess it’s something that I can’t see
hiding in your smile
California and Mexico
I’ve been to Houston too
Never thought that I would ever fall in love with you

We took a walk on the levee
and we told ourselves we would get ready in a little while
it was only a mile
To the church for the ceremony
I held the door for almost everybody and watched you laugh
behind the camera’s glass

From Colorado I got a call
I guess it snowed again
I don’t know how those two survived at all
but I’m glad that they’re my friends
California and Mexico
I’ve been to Houston too
Never thought that I would ever fall in love with you

Eight hours home on the interstate
I’m not alone but you can hardly even stay awake
as my headlights shake
I watch you sleep, I watch the road ahead
I watch you dream
I wish that I could lay you down in bed
But we’re not home yet

I didn’t know what you do to me
but every once in a while
I guess it’s something that I can’t see
hiding in your smile
California and Mexico
I’ve been to Houston too
Never thought that I would ever fall in love with you
