he said the way my blue eyes shined
put those georgia stars to shame that night
I said, that's a lie
just a boy in a Chevy truck that had a tendency
of getting stuck on back roads at night
and i was right there beside him all summer long
and then the time we woke up to find that summer gone, but
chorus
when you think tim mcgraw, i hope you think my favorite song
the one we danced to all night long
the moon like a spotlight on the lake
when you think happiness, i hope you think that little black dress
think of my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans,
when you think tim mcgraw... i hope you think of me
september saw a month of tears and thanking god
that you weren't here, to see me like that
but in a box beneath my bed is a letter that you never read
from three summers back
it's hard not to find it all a little bittersweet
and looking back on all of that
it's nice to believe
chorus
when you think tim mcgraw, i hope you think my favorite song
the one we danced to all night long
the moon like a spotlight on the lake
when you think happiness, i hope you think that little black dress
think of my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans,
when you think tim mcgraw... i hope you think of me
and i'm back for the first time since then
i'm standing on your street,
and there's a letter left on your door step
and the first thing that you'll read...
chorus
when you think tim mcgraw, i hope you think my favorite song
someday you'll turn your radio on
i hope it takes you back to that place
when you think happiness, i hope you think that little black dress
think my head on your chest and my old faded blue jeans,
when you think tim mcgraw... i hope you think of me
think of me
