It was a two lane north of Casper

Is where this all begins

Heading back to Oklahoma

For a week to visit friends

She was walking on the highway

So I pulled off to the side

And asked her is she needed a ride



We tore up that old blacktop

Til' we found I-25

And just into Colorado

She asked if she could drive

I never met nobody like her

I never laughed so much

And I grew hungry for her touch

(Chorus)

I used to think of autum

As sweaters and leaves

And I used to think the night

Was just for dreamers and theives

But that was before she came

Allison Miranda was her name



By the time that we hit Kansas

We both felt pretty beat

So we found our selves a motel

And grabbed a bite to eat

And we'd rest for a few short hours

Soon we'd be out of there

Three days later we came up for air



(Repeat Chorus)



Now I can't forget the morning

I woke alone in bed

To a rose left on her pillow

And a goodbye note that read

You can not grow a flower

If you do not have a seed

Now I've got everything I need



(Repeat Chorus)



Oh, it was he name
