I’ve never been to Dover, New Jersey, Joseph. Lol. Is that close to you? I live in a little bitty town in Indiana called Dover. Thanks for listening!

Great job on this song Rick, I got a feel of the eagles, Got a really nice melody too. I like the idea of making little decisions can change your whole life. You’ve got a good country voice too.

Thanks for the voice compliment, Paul. If I could afford to have professional demos made, believe me, I would. I do the best I can, so to hear some good feedback on my vocal track really means a lot to me. Thank you.

DOVER
(Written by: Rick Allan Lane)

VERSE
I WAS DRIVING TO ANYWHERE BUT WHERE I CAME FROM
THOUGHT I MIGHT DRIVE UNTIL I HIT THE OCEAN
BUT ANYWHERE WOULD BE BETTER THAN I LEFT BEHIND
I WAS TALKING TO GOD, LOOKING FOR ADVICE
WHEN THE GLARE FROM A SIGN AHEAD BLINDED MY EYES
IT WAS A SIGN THAT READ DOVER, EXIT ONE MILE

LIFT
IT COULD’VE BEEN A SIGN OR COINCIDENCE
I JUST SHOOK MY HEAD AND GRINNED AND SAID “WHAT THE HECK”

CHORUS
DON’T KNOW WHAT IT WAS ABOUT THAT EXIT SIGN
THAT MADE ME TURN OFF AND ENTER THIS LIFE
I WAS ON MY WAY TO STARTING OVER
WHEN I SAW YOU THAT DAY I STOPPED IN DOVER

VERSE
SO I STOPPED TO FILL UP, FIRST MY TANK AND THEN ME
BUT LEAVING THAT DINER, FATE BUMPED INTO ME
IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN WITH A PRETTY LITTLE GIRL IN HER ARMS

LIFT
WHAT MADE US KEEP ON TALKING, I’M NOT REALLY SURE
BUT SOMEHOW EXCUSE MES LED TO A WHOLE LOT MORE

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS I STILL LIVE IN THIS TOWN
WITH THAT BEAUTIFUL WOMAN
AND NOW THAT PRETTY LITTLE GIRL’S ALL GROWN UP NOW

REPEAT CHORUS

OH, I’LL NEVER FORGET THAT DAY I STOPPED IN DOVER
