Painted Dreams

Verse 1

Painted dreams on a mailbox road

Where a gravel turn will take you home at night

Tin roof rusted from the rain

But the porch light's still on for me tonight

Chorus

Painted dreams on faded denim skies

On a bridge she walks where the river sighs

I built them brick by weathered brick

Painted dreams won't fade too quick

Verse 2

She said one day the interstate

Would carry everything we'd ever chase

I hammered hope into the boards

While she kept count of all the doors we'd close

Pre-Chorus

But I keep on

Painting over all the gray

Chorus

Painted dreams on faded denim skies

On a bridge she walks where the river sighs

I built them brick by weathered brick

Painted dreams won't fade too quick

Bridge

Maybe she was right to go

Maybe I was wrong to stay

But somebody's gotta mend the fence

And keep the colors bright today

Chorus

Painted dreams on faded denim skies

On a bridge she walks where the river sighs

I built them brick by weathered brick

Painted dreams won't fade too quick

Outro

Won't fade too quick

No they won't fade too quick
