    Lyrics:
    Summer things and guitar string and everything when I hear you sing
    Summer walks and skipping rocks and how he talks 'bout my blue Reeboks
    Down an old dirt road where there's no where to go
    but into you into you
    By the willow tree where it's just you and me
    We'll say I love you I love you too
    Meet me in memory in Tennessee
    where the sky is filled with stars
    and your heart is filled with me
    heat meets the night and your kiss with me
    you'll always have my heart in Tennessee
    We'll take to feet and we'll race up the street I will call you a cheat for beating me there
    No need for coats when it's never cold but I want you to know I will still hold you close
    Where cicadas buzz and we are so in love
    and every star shines for you
    where the city sleeps and you are mine to keep
    and I love you I love you too

    I know this is a love song for couples but, most of this reminds me of my grandpa. i miss him so much and skipping rocks in Tennesee is what i remember most of him. He was a sweet soul and this just reminds of him so much.

      who cares what the original meaning was? The great thing about poetry is it can mean whatever it means to you (as long as it's supported.) Your meaning most definitely is. Remember your Grandpa in this song, there is nothing incorrect in your interpretation.

      @@sarahshoemaker6150 So thought guys who check answers to final exams for high school in my country. Result? one poet nearly failed exam made about her own poetry as exterminators thought it's more important what it means for them (also, exams are anonymous for exterminators) :)

    I love the space this puts my head in. Such a calm, happy space. And the line "Where cicadas buzz and we are so in love and" honestly just transports me to a cabin by a lake where everything is golden. I love this song and I love playing it on repeat while I write! It's music that inspires me to make something that's as emotional and powerful and just full.

    it's probably insane how much i love this song, but it's two years later and i keep coming back to it. it's just so beautiful?? i have never been in Tennessee, never even been close in proximity, but this song just tugs at every heart string that i have. i think that this version specifically will be in the playlist of songs that changed my life.

    I can tell how this is a typical love story, but told through the tone of nostalgia. As i believe, you were born & raised in TN and dont live there anymore, right? Not living in your original home is really hard, and thinking about it is harder. This song is really sweet and nostalgic and sort of made me remember to make memories and take account for the little things. Thank you. I cant wait to see you & dodie in Charlotte!!!
