About
Superb country message of love as a couple grows together, as does their kids
Lyrics
Intro Duet
Under the wide painted sky, we dream aloud
Bare feet pressed to the hush of this waiting ground
Promises whispered on summer’s first breeze
Hope in our laughter, roots under these trees
Verse 1
You and me driving home down a gravel lane
Hands in the sunlight, sharing the rain
Talking ‘bout little ones we ain’t yet known
Imagining wildflowers where seeds are sown
Pre-Chorus
That longing for more than the old front gate
Carving tomorrow from the world we create
Chorus
Planted our roots in this red clay ground
Where our love keeps going round and round
Watching our kids grow up strong and free
There's nowhere else that I'd rather be
Post-Chorus
Mmm, mmm, oh darling
Mmm, mmm, right here
Verse 2
You take my hand on the porch swing slow
Fireflies swirling as the daylight goes
Little voices playing in the tall grass near
We built a life that we both hold dear
Pre-Chorus
Through every storm, through every season
We held on tight, we found our reasons
Chasing the sun, sharing the sky
Love's what we've sown, you and I
Chorus
Planted our roots in this red clay ground
Where our love keeps going round and round
Watching our kids grow up strong and free
There's nowhere else that I'd rather be
Post-Chorus
Mmm, mmm, oh darling
Mmm, mmm, right here
Bridge
Long after daylight fades into blues
We trace the memories in worn-out shoes
Laugh lines and photographs scatter the floor
Still hearing small feet race through the door
Duet
If the years rush by in a silver stream
We hold on tighter to these shared dreams
No riches compare to this gentle view
Our story’s written in every hue
Chorus
Planted our roots in this red clay ground
Where our love keeps going round and round
Watching our kids grow up strong and free
There's nowhere else that I'd rather be
Outro
Ooh, ooh, my darling
Ooh, ooh, stay near
We planted, we’ve grown, we’re still here
Coda
Still in the glow of a southern night
Hearts in the hush of gentle twilight
Holding the promise we whispered years ago
Rooted in love, we’ll never let go
Duet Backing
Oh-oh, we’ll never let go
Ooh, ooh, holding on slow
Fade
Children laugh somewhere out of sight
We’re woven in peace, in faded light
Planted deep, where our story’s sown
Home in your arms, I’ve found my own
