  • 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 gettin' stuck
    On backroads 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 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 lookin' back on all of that, it's nice to believe

    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 doorstep
    And the first thing that you'll read

    Is 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 of my head on your chest
    And my old faded blue jeans
    When you think Tim McGraw
    I hope you think of me
    Oh, think of me
    Mmm

    He said the way my blue eyes shined
