There’s an old water tower as you drive into town
I’ve been known to climb up and drink a few rounds
but those were simpler days
Before I held you in my gaze
Never wanted to live anywhere else
Too far’s where I can’t hear my old church bells
Yeah those were simpler days
Before you set my heart ablaze
But I’ll follow you anywhere
Whether it snows or storms or rain I’ll be there
There’s little corner store right next to the bar
You were walking out as I was tuning my guitar
But those were simpler days
Or so my beating heart still says
You said hello, you smiled that smile
I’m sure i acted goofy all the while
You asked what’s good to do round here
I said how ‘bout you hold me near
But I’ll follow you anywhere
Whether it snows or storms or rain I’ll be there
There’s an old water tower as you drive into town
We’ve been known to climb up and drink a few rounds
These are happy days
As we watch the last sun rays
