As I turn off the interstate, it's dark out as it's getting pretty late.
I take a left at the flashing lights and I can't help but think about those nights.
We were young and had nothing to do. We'd ride to the lookout just for the view.
We talked about life, our master plans, and up on those rocks is where it began.
And up ahead I can see the great big sign,
Where I know what's mine is yours and yours is mine. It says ...
Welcome to Jackson,
A place to live and a place to love, a small piece of Heaven from up above.
Welcome to Jackson,
Population four hundred and thirty-two, but the only one I care about is you.
Because you're my Jackson - you're my Jackson.
As I drive over Old Mason's Creek and by the courthouse onto Maple Street,
I see the fountain where we would wish. I see the spot where we shared our first kiss.
You were nervous and I was scared, the timing was right - a chance that we dared.
Never would I see the stars the same, after that night when we lit this flame.
I pull in, you're waiting with a bottle of wine,
And I know what's mine is yours and yours is mine. You say ...
Welcome to Jackson,
A place to live and a place to love, a small piece of Heaven from up above.
Welcome to Jackson,
When the road has called and you are gone, I'll be waiting right here until you get home.
Because you're my Jackson - you're my Jackson.
As I turn off the interstate, it's dark out as it's getting pretty late.
I take a left at the flashing lights and I can't wait to see you tonight.
