I want the name of this song? Maybe some of the words too.?

Question

I'm not what type of music it is, sounds kind of country to me. A girl is singing about "things are sweeter in Tennessee" or something like that. It sounds like she is thinking of someone else while home with spouse. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

The Wreckers - Tennessee

I never had all the answers
I never had enough time
But I sure had all the reasons
Why you weren't what I wanted to find

I never laid all my cards out
You just wanted to play
The king he waited on my doorstep
While the joker and me went on our way

Chorus:
Maybe I was much too selfish
But baby you're still on my mind
Now I'm grown and all alone
And wishing I was with you tonight
'Cause I can guarantee
Things are sweeter in Tennessee

These days everything is all business
Never in ONE place for too long
And there's no lack of arms around me
But I still wonder if somewhere I went wrong

[Chorus]

In tennessee

And I'd wish on every star in the
Southern sky
For that man and our life
If I did not think that

[Chorus]

Yes, I can guarantee
Things are sweeter in Tennessee
