[Verse 1]
Ruined my favorite pair of jeans
Never looked up love
I was in soil, on hands and knees
Covered in Foxglove
I seen 'em bow down when you sing
I heard the wind run
I saw your sundress start to cling
Color me turned on

[Chorus]
I remember hoping you were everything
You were like lightning
You were the turn of the century
You were the reason in hindsight I woke up
Now whenever you're around
They see you but I can't
You’rе an Alabama Haint (Mm-mm-mm)

[Post-Chorus]
My porch roof paint's blue
In a way (Mm-mm-mm)
We're morе or less through
In a way (Mm-mm-mm)

[Bridge]
Maybe hearsay's not a rumor
I can't stay, wish I'd left sooner
Dismayed I'm a later bloomer
Still, hey, I root for my future
I get interviewed by a friend
They wanna know how it ended
They wanna quiz me, "Is this irreversible loss?"
Are you gone? Are you not?
[Chorus]
I remember hoping you were everything
You were like lightning
You were the turn of the century
You were the reason in hindsight I woke up
Now whenever you're around
They see you but I can't
You’re an Alabama Haint (Mm-mm-mm)

[Outro]
My porch roof paint's blue
In a way (Mm-mm-mm)
In a way (Mm-mm-mm)
In a way
