I can't go there
Kenny Chesney & Tim McGraw Lyrics

You know that restaurant on highway one
You know that place we used to go to on the highway.

With the key lime pie, that song, the sand and the sun
That place had some great key lime pie, and we loved listening to that song while feeling the sand and the sun.

Where we ran in our barefeet
We ran around the beach in our bare feet.

Built a castle on the beach
We built sand castles on the beach.

Just the wind, the rocks, the waves and you and me.
We enjoyed the natural surroundings like the wind, the rocks, and the waves while being together just you and me.

I can't go there
I can't bear going back to that place.

'Cause thats just too much us
That place reminds me too much of you and our time together.

I still feel your touch
It's like I can still feel your presence there with me.

Theres places in my heart and head
My heart and mind has certain spots that are still filled with memories of us in that place.

That feel as empty as our bed
But now those same spots feel empty like our bed since you're no longer there.

So most nights I dont even walk upstairs
I avoid going to those spots most nights altogether.

Remember San Francisco on that cable car
Remember when we rode that cable car in San Francisco?

Our reflection in the window of that store
We saw our reflection in a store window while walking around San Francisco.

How we danced the night away
We spent a lovely evening dancing together.

With the lights out on the bay
The bay had some beautiful lights shining out that night.

Then wound up in a blanket on the floor.
The night ended with us cuddled up in a blanket on the floor.

'Cause 'Friscos too much, us
I can't go back to San Francisco because it reminds me too much of us.

Now theres places in my heart and head
Just like the other place, there are certain spots in my heart and mind filled with memories of us in San Francisco.

That still feel as empty as our bed
But those same spots feel empty now without you.

If it was only Florida or California
If it was just one or two places we shared together like Florida or California.

Maybe I could let myself move on
Maybe then I could move on from our memories.

But its everywhere we've been
But we've been to so many different places together.

And everywhere I turn
Everywhere I go, there's a memory of us.

I can't love again
I can't bring myself to love again.

Because I've learned.
I've learned that the memories of us are still too powerful for me to move on and open my heart to love again.

It's somethin' I can't do
I physically cannot go back to those places where we shared our memories.

'Cause I'll run into you
Going back there would remind me of you, and that would be too painful for me.

When the sun shines, when it rains
No matter what the weather is like.

Christmas parties, football games
Even during memorable events like Christmas parties or football games.

Winter, summer, fall or spring
Any time of the year.

I see you in everything
I see reminders of you everywhere I go.

It's too much us
It reminds me too much of us and our memories.
