Louisiana Lyrics - Tim McGraw

1 Maybe it was a dream last night

2 Or looking into my daughter's eyes

3 But my heart was sinking

4 Yeah, man, it got me thinking

5 About all of my yesterdays

6 Every minute, every page of my innocence

7 Wishing I could go back when

8 I was wild and free as the Mississippi

9 Playing in the sugar cane

10 A part of me is gone

11 I don't know when it slipped away

12 I guess I left it in Louisiana

13 Blowing in the wind

14 Hiding in the quarter

15 Gotta get back there again

16 To the sweet sounds of the bayou

17 Let it wash right over me

18 Make me whole again

19 Bring back that missing piece

20 That I left in Louisiana

21 Well, I still feel the same

22 But the mirror tells me that I've changed

23 Every morning it's like a subtle warning

24 It comes on like a delta rain

25 Soaks through my skin down to my vein

26 And it leaves me breathless

27 And a little restless

28 Reminding me that life is so fragile

29 Like a thin sheet of a glass

30 The moment you're living right now

31 Will soon become your past

32 And I left it in Louisiana

33 Blowing in the wind

34 Hiding in the quarter

35 Gotta get back there again

36 To the sweet sounds of the bayou

37 Let it wash right over me

38 Make me whole again

39 Bring back that missing piece

40 That I left in Louisiana

41 But every night I close my eyes

42 And I go walking under that magnolia sky

43 That I left it in Louisiana

44 Blowing in the wind

45 Hiding in the quarter

46 Gotta get back there again

47 To the sweet sounds of the bayou

48 Let it wash right over me

49 Make me whole again

50 Bring back that missing piece

51 That I left in Louisiana
