I Never Will Forget - Beverly McClellan

I remember as a child driving through the mountains

All the windows rolled down and a song on the radio

All the leaves have changed into a symphony of colors

It’s a beautiful picture that I call my home

Them Tennessee Hills sure knew how to raise me

To the woman I am, with a song in my heart

My momma sang to me tender, soul-felt music

And gospel from the hills is a mighty fine way to start

(Chorus)

Oh, take me back

Where it used to be, before the times changed and it all got crazy

I know I can’t go back

But only in my mind

The heart knows all

Yeah, the heart knows all

And I never will forget

(Instrumental)

Oh, trust in the good and love that’s all around you

Believe in something

'Cause we all need a little faith

Don’t hold your anger like money in a pocket

Because the truth be known you learn from that mistake

(Chorus)

Hold on to the ones that complete your presence

And just laugh at the heartache we will leave along the way

I’ve got to live my life, 'cause I only get one shot here

But I remember your roots because they don’t ever fade

(Chorus)
