Lyrics

Intro

Mhm, uh-huh, yeah

(la-la) alright

Verse

First kiss on the tailgate, July heat on your skin

You laughed at my song like you already knew how it'd begin

Coffee-stained mornings and your daddy's old truck

You pinned a yellow daisy to the back of my luck

You hum that same slow tune when you're fixin' my sleeves

Two-step in the kitchen while the whole town believes

That forever might come easy when it starts with you

Blue jeans, worn-out map, and a sky so true

Pre-chorus

And I could measure time by the corners of your smile

Watch the years roll past but I’d stay here a while

(oh-oh, stay with me)

Chorus

You're the love of my life, my porch light on the lane

You're the steady in the storm and the soft after the rain

You're the line I come back to, the song that never dies

You're the love of my life, my love of my li-i-i-fe (yeah)

You're the love of my life, love of my life (oh-oh)

Verse

You leave your sweater on the chair like a map of where you've been

Every freckle tells a story and I learn them all again

We drive the backroads slow where the wild corn grows high

Talk about the little things like how we want to die

Surrounded by our pictures on a thrift-store frame of gold

You say, "No rush, darlin', we'll let the river roll"

And I believe in simple promises, in the way you say my name

In the quiet of the barn where you stoke my flame

Pre-chorus

I count the ways you save me from the inside out

The easy little kindnesses, the brave, the loud

(yeah-yeah, oh-oh)

Chorus

You're the love of my life, my porch light on the lane

You're the steady in the storm and the soft after the rain

You're the line I come back to, the song that never dies

You're the love of my life, my love of my li-i-i-fe (mhm)

You're the love of my life, love of my life (alright)

Bridge

We’ll grow old with our initials carved in maple bark

Sit on that faded bench and watch the townlight spark

I’ll hold your hand when the doctor says slow it down

You’ll kiss me in the hospital scrubs, put my hair in a crown

No silver spoons, no city gold — just two worn rings

And the promise in your laugh when you say, "Let’s do small things"

(na-na, na-na) oh-oh

Chorus

You're the love of my life, my porch light on the lane

You're the steady in the storm and the soft after the rain

You're the line I come back to, the song that never dies

You're the love of my life, my love of my li-i-i-fe (yeah-yeah)

You're the love of my life, love of my life

You're the love of my life, love of my life (oh-oh)

Outro

Mhm, stay with me (stay with me)

Love of my life (love of my life)

Yeah, yeah, alright
