After You Lyrics – Jason Aldean
After You Lyrics
[Verse 1: Jason Aldean]]
After you, I was chasing in a sunset scene
That Seger song in the backseat was kinda our thing
You drove a Pontiac and my heart crazy
If you jumped off that river bank
Hell, I'd do the same after you
I'd walk into that bar right behind
Catch a stare down with some old boy
Let 'em know you were mine
Swore it was gonna last the rest of our lives
But fireworks in February turned to one damn cold July
[Chorus: Jason Aldean]]
And now I'm burning down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Looking for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after lovе, after leaving
After too much drinking, aftеr you
[Verse 2: Jason Aldean]]
After you, I thought about taking that runway
To I don't care, anywhere but this rundown place
Leave all this sh!t and put my Chevy in drive
I'll take any town, any day, any state but out of my mind
[Chorus: Jason Aldean]]
And now I'm burning down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Looking for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after love, after leaving
After too much drinking, after you
[Bridge: Jason Aldean]]
I should've ran after you
Fast as I can after you
I didn't know I was gonna need a plan after you
You can tell after you
It's been hell after you
I don't even know who I am after you
[Chorus: Jason Aldean]]
And now I'm burning down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Looking for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after love, after leaving
After too much drinking, after us
After dreaming, after too much thinking, after you
[Outro: Jason Aldean]]
After you
