I found her in the state of Kentucky.
I fell so hard and felt so lucky.
She was trapped and in a bit of a jam.
I knew what I was doing, I didn't give a damn.

We talked and we met on a warm spring night.
I fell into a trance, it was love at first sight.
After a wonderful Sunday, we grudgingly parted.
I knew in my heart, something special had started.

Long walks at night and holding hands by day,
she looked into my eyes and decided to stay.
She with her long brown hair, we closely sat,
she in her skirt and me in my hat.

Almost a year and still going strong.
Any time away from her is always too long.
In the beginning I was unsure and a little wary.
I found my true love, her name is Carrie.
