Lyrics
Verse 1
You walked in wearing summer
With the sunset in your eyes,
And every little heartbeat
Started falling into time.
Now the porch light's on till midnight,
Your hand is holding mine,
And the whole world feels like heaven
When you're standing by my side.
Chorus
You're the first thought in my morning,
The last prayer before I sleep,
You're the promise in the distance,
You're the secret that I keep.
If forever is a highway,
Baby, I'll ride it with you—
Where the stars come down to meet us,
I'll spend all my life loving you.
Verse 2
We can dance beside the pickup
Underneath the harvest moon,
While the crickets sing our love song
And the night wind hums the tune.
I don't need a grand old mansion,
I don't need a diamond ring,
Just your boots beside my doorway
And your kiss in everything.
Chorus
You're the first thought in my morning,
The last prayer before I sleep,
You're the promise in the distance,
You're the secret that I keep.
If forever is a highway,
Baby, I'll ride it with you—
Where the stars come down to meet us,
I'll spend all my life loving you.
Bridge
When the years turn silver
And the young days fade away,
I'll still reach across the covers
Just to hold you every day.
Through the storms and changing seasons,
One thing will always be true:
Every road I've ever taken
Was leading me to you.
Final Chorus
You're the first thought in my morning,
The last prayer before I sleep,
You're the home my heart was missing,
You're the best part of my dreams.
If forever is a highway,
Baby, I'll ride it with you—
Where the stars come down to meet us,
I'll spend all my life loving you.
