Song lyrics
Staring at you taking off your makeup
Wondering why you even put it on
I know you think you do, but baby, you don't need it
Wish that you could see what I see when it's gone

Chorus:
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
Wait, baby don't move, right there it is
A T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch
That river was cold but we gave love a chance
Yeah To me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling

Yeah, smile and shake your head as if you don't believe me
I'll just sit right here and let you take me back
I'm on that gravel road, (look at me)
On my way to pick you up you're standing on the front porch
Looking just like that (remember that)

Chorus:
I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
Wait, baby don't move, right there it is
A T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch
That river was cold but we gave love a chance
Yeah To me
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling yeah

I see a dust trail following an old red Nova
Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling
(I see a dust trail following an old red Nova)
No, no, no
(Baby blue eyes, your head on my shoulder)
Fast cars and freedom! Ohhh!
(a T-shirt hanging off a dogwood branch)
And that sunset...and that riverbank
(that river was cold but we gave love a chance)
Ohhh...that first time feeling! Yeah Yeah Yeah
You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom
That sunset, riverbank, first time feeling

For some reason I love it when he sings "You don't look a day over fast cars and freedom," lol. I don't know why, but I can listen to just that part over and overrr again.

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. The fact that he after all these years still loves his wife and feels so strongly about her and her beauty is one of the sweetest things I have ever even thought possible. It is so kind and caring. He is saying, "You know baby, we maybe old, but you are just as beautiful as the day I met you." It is things like these that make you want to find the right woman (or if you already have her) and keep her for every day of your life and never let her go. This is going to be played on radio stations everywhere for years and years to come.

It's about a couple that's been married for a while, and the wife is taking off her make-up. The husband is telling her that she doesn't even need it, because she still looks like a teenager, back when they had "Fast Cars and Freedom"

This is one of my favortie songs on the album.
