Question
i heard a song the other day on the radio and the only words i can remember are "one boy loved one girl in san angelo" or something along those lines. i do think it is fairly new but i was hoping i could find out who sings that song. thank you, i've tried searching but it just hasnt been working.  

Answer
Hello Whitney,

That song is called "San Angelo" by Aaron Watson. It appears on his album, also called "San Angelo".

We'd walk up and down the Concho River
We'd find a soft place to watch the sun go down
So was it me or was it what I could not give you
She left me shattered, my life scattered all around

She said time would heal my broken heart
And I'd find a true companion for my soul
You know she was right, we were wrong
Nothing more than a pretty song
About a boy who loved a girl
In San Angelo

We'd walk up and down the Concho River
We'd find a soft place to watch the sun go down
So was it me or was it what I could not give you
She left me shattered, my life scattered all around  

When I'd close my eyes, I could hear her singing
In the chapel where she said we'd wed someday
It rattled me so to hear them old church bells ringing
Knowing well enough we'd never love that way

She said time would heal my broken heart
And I'd find a true companion for my soul
You know she was right, we were wrong
Nothing more than a pretty song
About a boy who loved a girl
In San Angelo

Looking back it was a blessing she broke my heart in two
But if I had never lost her, baby I'd have never found you

She said time would heal my broken heart
And I'd find a true companion for my soul
You know she was right, we were wrong
Nothing more than a pretty song
About a boy who loved a girl
In San Angelo

About a boy who once loved a girl in San Angelo


Glad to be of help. Cheers..........Mel.
