Lyrics

Intro

(yeah... yeah...)

Verse

Ninety-eight, two strangers in a chat room glow

Typed our names, never thought it’d grow

You were Shelley, I was Andy, just friends at first

Laughs through the screen, then the silence burst

Ten years cold, no word, no sign

Thought you were gone, left it all behind

Two thousand nine, your message hit the screen

Pulled me back from the places I’d been

Pre-chorus

I started rolling those highways just to close the gap

Idaho plates rolling east on the map

Chorus

Shelley, we made it through the years apart

From late-night chats to the beat of my heart

July fifteenth, first time I saw your face

Thirty-hour drive, Thanksgiving, I took my place

Packed up my life, moved to Indiana ground

Proposed in April, married when the summer came around

Fourteen years deep and I love you more

Than the day I walked through that Indiana door

Verse

Truck wheels turned, every mile was a vow

Left the west behind to be with you now

You found me again when the world went dark

Gave me a reason to restart

Chorus

Shelley, we made it through the years apart

From late-night chats to the beat of my heart

July fifteenth, first time I saw your face

Thirty-hour drive, Thanksgiving, I took my place

Packed up my life, moved to Indiana ground

Proposed in April, married when the summer came around

Fourteen years deep and I love you more

Than the day I walked through that Indiana door

Bridge

Some nights the road still calls my name

But every mile leads back to the same

You and me, still burning like we did back then

Stronger now than we’ve ever been

Chorus

Shelley, we made it through the years apart

From late-night chats to the beat of my heart

July fifteenth, first time I saw your face

Thirty-hour drive, Thanksgiving, I took my place

Packed up my life, moved to Indiana ground

Proposed in April, married when the summer came around

Fourteen years deep and I love you more

Than the day I walked through that Indiana door

Outro

(yeah... yeah...)

More than ever...

More than ever...
