She left without leaving a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Austin
'Cause she talked about it all the time
It was almost a year
Before she called him up,
Three rings and an answering machine
Is what she got.
If you're calling 'bout the car, I sold it,
If this is Tuesday night, I'm bowling
If you got something to sell
You're wasting your time
I'm not buying
If it's anybody else
Wait for the tone
You know what to do
And P.S. if this is Austin
I still love you.
The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kinda man would hang on that long
What kinda love that must be
She waited three days
And then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say
But she heard three rings and then.
If it's Friday night,
I'm at the ball game
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone all weekend long
But I'll call you back
When I get home
On Sunday afternoon,
And P.S. if this is Austin
I still love you.
This time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone
On Sunday evening
And this is what he heard.
If you're calling 'bout my heart
It's still yours
I shoulda listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have
Taken me so long
To know where I belong
And by the way, boy
This is no machine you're talking to
Can't you tell this is Austin
And I still love you.
I still love you...
This song is about when this girl is thinking about her old boyfriend and she decides to give him a call. She gets the message machine and at the end it says "P.S. If this is Austin, I still love you" and shes very shocked about that (she drops the phone lol). She calls again later in the week and she gets the machine again and at the end it says the same thing. But this time she leaves her number, thats all. He calls her back Sunday evening and she says "If your callin bout my heart, its still yours, etc."(the last chorus of the song) and she says she still loves him too!! Its a great song.

vocal this song (as awesome as it is) has a strong resemblance to "At The Sound Of The Tone" by John Schneider ( ) although Blake Shelton's song has a happier ending. Both songs get a from me!

vocal Her name is Austin, and she also went to Austin. Come on people, the song is NOT that complicated. Anyone who can't understand it should go back to first grade.
its a good song and i love it. this song, even though it is sad, has gotten me through my breakup with my ex (who was a cowboy) Oh, well it wasnt meant to be.

vocal This is not a sad song. It is in fact a very happy song so to speak.
I can't believe some of you all don't understand the song. David Kent, who wrote the song was a genious because this song is brilliant. Its a story about dedication and a guy who loses a girl but still loves her. A year, a couple months, a decade? It doesn't matter what your story is. The point is, this song is for all of you all out there that still loves someone that you lost a LONG TIME AGO, not a week or yesterday, but still loves that person to this day.
Its one of my favorite songs to perform because its rather easy and the words mean a lot to me too.
Blake Shelton's best that a lot of people don't know about...
