It was a May full moon 
We parked the car 
And I sang you a song I wrote on my guitar 
Oh I have kissed 
Many times since then 
But that first one is special 
One you don't forget 
If I had asked you then you probably took my ring 
But time and distance have a way 
Of changing things 
And sometime I wonder 
What it would happen like 
If we had wandered 
The same path in life 
Tonight if your out there 
Looking up at the same moon 
Girl I hope 
That your trail in life 
Has been good to you 
College days 
Frat house nights 
You were more then just a bunch of rowdy friend of mine 
You made leaving home 
Not as hard to bare 
Yea we swore we’d stick together 
Til we were in rocking chairs 
We all kind of scattered 
Getting our lives in gear 
The phone called went from weeks to months 
To I ain't hear in years 
Sometime I wonder 
What it would happen like 
If we had wandered 
The same paths in life 
Would we still smoke cigars? 
Yea when the wild cat beat OU 
Oh friend I hope that your trail in life 
Has been good to you 
The day I was born 
They said you cried 
When you signed those papers 
And kissed me good-bye 
To young to know 
How to raise me up 
So you let me go and start this world in this house of love 
I was 12 years old when daddy sat me down 
And told me of a brave young girl 
That I should know about 
Sometimes I wonder 
What it would happen like 
If we had wondered 
The same path in life 
I think I would make you proud 
Of the boy you never knew 
God I hope 
That your trail in life 
Has been good to you 
And some day I know 
This old trail in life 
Will wind back to you
Yes, I was confused too but I love the song. After reading the lyrics, I think I have the meaning figured out.
