Church, Eric - Springsteen Lyrics
To this day when I hear that song,
I see you standing there on that lawn
Discount shades, store-bought tan,
Flip-flops and cut-off jeans
"I'm On Fire" and "Born To Run"
You looked at me and I was done,
And we, we're just getting started
I was singing to you, you were singing to me
I was so alive, never been more free
Fired up my daddy's lighter and we sang oh
Stayed there 'til they forced us out
And took the long way to your house
Of you saying, "Don't go."
When I think about you
I think about 17
I think about my old Jeep
I think about the stars in the sky
Funny how a melody sounds like a memory
Like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
Springsteen
I bumped into you by happenstance
You probably wouldn't even know who I am
But if I whispered your name,
I bet there'd still be a spark
Back when I was gasoline
And this old tattoo had brand new ink
And we didn't care what your mom would think
'Bout your name on my arm
Baby is it spring or is it summer
The guitar sound or the beat of that drummer
You hear sometimes late at night on your radio
Even though you're a million miles away
When you hear Born In The USA
You relive those glory days so long ago
When you think about me
Do you think about 17
Do you think about my old Jeep
Think about the stars in the sky
Funny how a melody sounds like a memory
Like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
Springsteen, Springsteen
Funny how a melody sounds like a memory
Like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
Springsteen, Springsteen, oh, Springsteen

Church, Eric Springsteen Comments
2020 and still love the line "funny how a melody sounds like a memory"
Hey you need to go on live on intergrams on YouTube
this song brings back so many memories :,)
I rember making those cassette mix tapes of our favorite tunes back in the good old 80's …..good times ...good times….dang....those days felt so comfortable!!!
This is literally THE BEST contemporary country song I have heard in 20 years. And probably will remain as such.
no wonder she cant find anyone....me...me..me...me...me...me....me..... 🙄
Cut from same cloth
Heart crusher - makes me miss the ones that got away hard
I grew up sianig to you love I springsting is my fav😄😊😉👌
This song makes me think In good ways
This song gives me great memories of my wife and I before we got married in indiana. We lived in a small town
this is such a good song
I love you so much your songs are amazing ❤️

It's 2020 and I'm back again🤷♀️
I only listen to this song to here him say whoa whoa whoa lol love it
WHO IS STILL HERE 2020
From New Zealand I love you your music your the shit …. Springteen was what won me … the bass line you the man !
My teacher showed us this song back in 2012 and I’ve been looking for 8years!!
Anyone else from the Grady subreddit?
Why is the girl in the video sooo Beautifullll
Weird to think this was of the first songs my ex recommended in my relationship and now it's just memories
his days comin CMA entertainer !!
How this dude hasn't gotten the respect of the country music industry is crazy. Love his style and his music. Beats that pop country crap. And another thing. In love Garth Brooks but how in the world did he beat out Eric for entertainer of the Year this year? No way! Legacy award I guess.
Hickory
He lives close to me
Deserves accolades.
About as country as blue tacoma
Caught all the references. That was inspiring to see you perform out of the garage for the kids. Well done.
I remember when this came out and I had this song on repeat for hours and hours at night. I couldn't stop hearing different details in it every time, and it kept making me want to cry... This is one of the only songs that ever used to give me any sort of emotional response and to this day it still hits me the same way :)
2019 going on 20s??
When i think about you ...
Mr.Church, You should go to church and beg for forgiveness for talking bad about another big country king like GARTH BROOK'S! If you want the perks then work your ass off as long as Garth has all his life and has a bigger fan base then you'll ever have.You need to give a public apology to THE COUNTRY KING MR.GARTH BROOKS. Until that happens I will never be a fan of you anymore. POOR TASTE MAN!! You lost a lot of fans by doing what you did. I don't care if anyone like's my opion or not.I know who and love our Garth Brooks and will always defend him and his many years of hard work and never complains about another country singer. Shame on you Mr.Church.Be a man and apologize to Garth as you were man enough to have said what you said about this man.Get over yourself and maybe you'll get your fans back. That's all I have to say to you!!!!!!!!!!
Eric Church knows how impactful Bruce Springsteen is!
I often wonder if former friends from 10-20-30 years think of me, our times, and either laugh or smile.
Who is watching in damn near 2020
Eltonjohn
I like the lyrics in this song. They make me think about school and the lots of assignments teachers give. They are too much and some of them need too much research that done have enough time to do lol
it's going to be 2020. and still there's nothing better than that.
Who is still watching in 2020
One of the century's best songs. Full stop. Country or otherwise. Doesn't matter.
This one song has had more impact on me the last decade than any person I know. Unbelievable
Every comment either says about how this song has Impacted someones life or “who is watching in 2019”
This is a song that I never knew was my favorite song but really i Have heard this song since I was 4. 13 and I can’t leave this decade behind. A song that makes me think of summer. A song that I have always loved and will always love. Music has played a huge part in my life and this song has been with me even before I discovered my love of music.
My fav song
This totally does not belong in the suburbs
Who’s here after Martin Garrix Used to Love?
yall this man grew up in my hometown and this song is about my spanish teacher, who he was engaged to before he left to do music. its weird as fuck seeing this
i was singing the whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa part in the office and was asked wtf i was singing, so i had to pull this video up and show them. we are all jamming out to this song now. :-) 11/27/2019
Who are the 8.6K people who gave this beautiful song a dis-like?!
I have this on repeat in 2019. Great song.
Jumprock
I love this song
I've always just love the girl in the beginning...shes just a doll♥
Eric is the man and has got so much to give ....
This is totally the row row boat melody.
When he sings whoa whoa whoa...
Row row row your boat.
@Michael Walker

Who is still watching in 2026?
Há 7 anos atrás as músicas dele me ajudaram muito em uma desilusão amorosa, hoje novamente em 2019..
Richard
This song makes my cry like a baby everytime. My best friend is dead of a drug overdose. I miss him . This song just kills me.
I'm so sorry🙏😢
November 2nd I'll be seeing you live for the first time!!!!! I cant wait!!!!
I was there section 225. How about you.
Travis Bevin I was down in 102
How was the seating there.
Travis Bevin it was good but we had to move seats because if was so loud
Makes sense it wasn't to bad up in 225.
I'm sorry but that woman at the beginning in the video comes off as nothing but trouble.... a narcissist with borderline personality disorder... in my humble opinion ..run ..don't walk from people like her... in my humble opinion.....
Back in the days memories... ... ...
He's changed sooo much since this one!🎶
God bless America !!
God help me Jesus holy shit
I’m twenty now but feeling nostalgic knowing that in a few more years I’ll be looking back on these times.
Getting into...a little Eric Church
❤️❤️
Good song... to bad he is anti gun.... https://youtu.be/M8Lul96a61Q
Oh yeah!! I Love it...
even I'm still a millenial...
I live in Elgin, TX where that video was filmed. That bar was called Qouffer's but now is liberty tree tavern. Fuck I love this song and the video.
meh, hate his voice. His country accent to me sounds fake AF. I'm going to go listen to Tyler Childers.
I was in 4th when this came out I am now a junior
Dudes talking about pedophilia. He's like 30 thinking about a 17 year old? Dudes a pedophile and should be in jail!
He's talking Nostalgia
She sure says "me" and "I" a lot when talking about the perfect man.... weird.
Nicholas Nankervis he thinks he is the perfect man
@John Bradley I do or Eric Church?
Lmfao wtf is this
"To this day", I think about you, when we were on your quad, when we sat on your grammas porch, when we stood on your aunts porch while it was pouring down rain, "A million miles away" I miss you.
This nostalgic song is amazing and the colors of the video woow, Epic...
Yea I feel the same way
Ohhh Scarlet Girl what was going through your pretty little mind ;) still perfect in the clouds for me
Cause of this song I subcribed
Bro the memories made when this song came out......got me misty eyed fo real!!
