When the Sun Goes Down in Georgia I fell in love at a glance Should've known I'd never have a chance To be with you in the long run You have a plan I am not in You're gonna move up north to live again Whenever school is over So I have to let you go But before you leave me here There's something you should know When the sun goes down in Georgia I'll be driftin' back in time Wishin' love could've changed your mind And when the moonlight shines through the pine trees I'll get lost in memories Dreaming you are here with me Oh it's sad but true I'm just your love-sick fool So when the sun goes down in Georgia, oh I'll be missin' you I bet you never had a clue But I'd do anything to be with you I'd leave this place in a heartbeat I'd move away from my sweet home Just to be your faithful tag-along I'd follow you forever But if you're better left alone I'll do my best to understand Still my love will linger on Cause when the sun goes down in Georgia I'll be drifting back in time Wishin' love could've changed your mind And when the moonlight shines through the pine trees I'll get lost in memories Dreaming you are here with me Oh it's sad but true I'm just your love-sick fool So when the sun goes down in Georgia, oh I'll be missin' you Oh it's sad but true I'm just your love-sick fool So when the sun goes down in Georgia I'll be missin' you
