Story behind the song
There really was an overpass on State Rte. 11, and it really did have these words painted on it (and the next one down the road had "Chad loves Paula"). I mated this with a true story from long ago...my high school girlfriend broke my heart when she had to move away after her dad got a job out of state -- so yes, "I been there before."
Lyrics
Spray-painted on an overpass I was only passin' through But it got me to thinkin' How would it feel if it was you? Paula must stay forever Paula must stay forever Paula must stay forever Paula must stay forever And the name he signed was Chad He couldn't bear to see her go 'Cause he knew just what he had Tell me somethin' that I don't know Paula must stay forever (x4) More than this I cannot add 'Cause I been there before It kinda speaks for itself And it will forever more And I wonder what she's doin' now I wonder if she even knew Still it got me to thinkin' How would it feel if it was you? Paula must stay forever...
