I Saw It In You Lyrics

Joe Ely

1)
I opened the blinds in a Texas Motel room
When the sun blasted in I Saw It in You
I been a rollin' and a ramblin' all over Creation
Rollin' down the highway lookin' for the truth

I Saw It in You

I Saw It in You

2)
I woke up my sidekick, "It's a long way to LLano
I'll see you next summer when the peach trees are ripe."
I'll follow my dreams where ever they take me
Now I'm headed home, I saw the light

I Saw It in You

I Saw It in You

I saw it all in you
The Sun, The Wind,
The Trees that Bend
I Saw It in You
I Saw It in You
I Saw It in You

3)
Sometimes I listen To the fool inside me
Sometimes I follow The song in my heart
Sometimes I swear There's an angel beside me
Guiding my footsteps On through the dark

I Saw It in You

I Saw It in You
