Tina you could never know
The many times I think about you 
I can't let it go
But I know there's never enough time 
With so many promises to keep
And the world lying at your feet

I went down to your hometown just cruising around
And that old cotton gin had turned to rust
I could almost see your footprints lying there in the dust
When you were just a young girl

Tina I know you've paid the price, oh yeah 
And you left it all so far behind
But the memories linger still 
And the storm rolled across the field

If the day should ever come 
When your smile is just a motion
And you feel that you might need someone
You know I'd cross that ocean
I would never have to think twice 
You're part of my life

And whatever path you choose 
Tina you know we pull for you
You just keep on taking us higher 
You are the fire
