Clear As Day

  • You were sitting on that Silverado bumper
    Outside our locker room right after the game
    Glowing in the tan you got that summer
    I walked by and you said, "Hey"
    Yeah, that night's still clear as day

    First time we'd ever beat East Lincoln county
    Big party down at Ricky Bowman's place
    I walked up, you threw your arms around me
    And whispered you loved to watch me play
    Yeah, that night's still clear as day

    There ain't one second times erased
    Every detail is still in place
    You hold to what you love
    Some things never fade
    And that night's still clear as day

    We went to get some fresh air on the back porch
    I put my class ring by the cross on your gold chain
    You backed my back against those cedar clapboards
    My lips ain't never been kissed that way
    Yeah, that night's still clear as day

    There ain't one second times erased
    Every detail is still in place
    You hold to what you love
    Some things never fade

    I walked you to your brother's Silverado
    When you climbed behind the wheel, you seemed okay
    Last thing you said was "I'll call you tomorrow"
    That's a call you never got to make
    They blamed it on the fog and pouring rain
    And that night's still clear as day Writer/s: Adam Wheeler, Casey Michael Beathard, Philip Eugene O'donnell
