[Verse 1]

You 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 pickup truck

That had a funny way of getting stuck

On backroads at night

[Pre-Chorus]

I was right there beside you all summer long

Then in time we woke up to find that summer gone

[Chorus]

When you think Tim McGraw

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

The one you said you liked best

Next to my old faded pair of jeans

When you think Tim McGraw

I hope you think me

[Verse 2]

September saw a month of tears

Thanking God that you weren't here

To see me like that

In a box beneath my bed

Sits a letter that you never read

From three summers back

[Pre-Chorus]

It's hard not to find it all bittersweet

But looking back on all of that it's nice to believe

[Chorus]

When you think Tim McGraw

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

The one you said you liked best

Next to my old faded pair of jeans

When you think Tim McGraw

I hope you think me

[Bridge]

Been back a couple times since then

And I didn't look you up

But some trains you can't catch again

You gotta leave it as it was

[Chorus]

But when you think Tim McGraw

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

The one you said you liked best

Next to my old faded pair of jeans

When you think Tim McGraw

When you think Tim McGraw

When you think Tim McGraw

I hope you think me

[Outro]

You said the way my blue eyes shined

Put those Georgia stars to shame that night

I said, "that's a lie"
