I pulled out her chair, just like I did that night, Her long black hair fell soft in the candlelight. Took me back to a booth, when she first caught my gaze, And I knew right then, my life would change. Tequila and memories, laughter and tears, We’ve tasted it all through the love and the years. Every sip’s a reminder of the life that we’ve made, Tequila and memories, they don’t ever fade. I looked in her eyes as the waiter walked by, Saw a young girl’s sparkle and a woman’s quiet pride. Dreams we’ve been building, hopes we’ve held strong, Right there in her eyes, I saw where I belong. Tequila and memories, laughter and tears, We’ve tasted it all through the love and the years. Every sip’s a reminder of the life that we’ve made, Tequila and memories, they don’t ever fade. Waiting on supper, she reached for my hand, I felt that same lightning as when it began. The world disappeared, it was just her and me, And the years rolled away like waves on the sea. Heading back home in my old pickup truck, She slid over close, but not all the way up. That half-way lean was her quiet little sign, Of love that’s content and forever mine. Through highways and heartaches, through sunshine and rain, One look at her smile, and I’d do it all again. Tequila and memories, laughter and tears, We’ve tasted it all through the love and the years. Every sip’s a reminder of the life that we’ve made, Tequila and memories, they don’t ever fade.
