Be enough

**“Break These Roads Behind Us”**

Verse 1

There’s rust on the gate and rain on the tracks,

Bills on the table and dreams in the cracks,

Your hand in mine by the kitchen light glow,

Whispering softly, “There’s somewhere to go.”

The children are sleeping, curled warm in their beds,

While the world keeps on shouting its fear in our heads,

But your eyes hold a fire this cold town can’t chain,

Like wild horses running ahead of the rain.

Chorus

So let’s break these roads behind us tonight,

Leave the sorrow in the rear-view lights,

Take our babies where the fields roll free,

Where the sky don’t judge who we used to be.

We’ll build a little life where the river runs clear,

Far from the weight that’s been keeping us here,

And if all we own is this old truck and love,

Darling, that’ll be enough.

Verse 2

Your laugh is a hymn in a worn-out bar,

Like moonlight dancing on a battered guitar,

And every hard mile that life put us through

Only carved deeper places for loving you.

We’ve carried the worry like stones in our coats,

Watched too many good hearts sink like boats,

But I still believe in tomorrow somehow,

‘Cause forever looks beautiful on you right now.

Chorus

So let’s break these roads behind us tonight,

Leave the sorrow in the rear-view lights,

Take our babies where the fields roll free,

Where the sky don’t judge who we used to be.

We’ll build a little life where the river runs clear,

Far from the weight that’s been keeping us here,

And if all we own is this old truck and love,

Darling, that’ll be enough.

Bridge

One day our children will ask where we’ve been,

We’ll say, “We escaped when the world caved in.”

And we chose each other when hope felt thin,

That’s where every good thing begins.

Final Chorus

Yeah, we broke those roads behind us that night,

Found a heaven in the pale sunrise,

Now our babies run through open fields,

Laughing loud enough for broken hearts to heal.

And every scar became a map somehow,

Leading me straight to the life we’ve got now,

So if this whole world disappears like dust,

I’ll still have you…

And that’ll always be enough.
