Roots Deeper Than the Wind

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Look at every mark on this wooden table

Every year gone by kept us standing stable

It wasn't luck that got us all this way

It was holding through the cold when nobody had faith

So many nights with the bills across the floor

Staring at the ceiling dreaming something more

You held my hand when the gale began to blow

We learned that love is more than just a roll

Pre-Chorus

Every single scar is a battle we have won

Wouldn't trade this life for the world under the sun

The noise outside is loud but inside we find our peace

Look me in the eyes we're not about to cease

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Chorus

'Cause a love like this will never back down

Built a castle tall where they only saw the ground

Hand in hand through mud cutting through the heavy gray

Guarding every spark so the darkness stays away

Step by step every dream we chase

Keeping every promise right here in this place

We are in this for the long run no turning back

(For the long run no turning back)

Verse 2

We saw each other fall we saw each other rise

Fingers locked tight learning truth without the lies

The dreams we used to whisper in that little crowded room

Are breathing in the choices that we carry into bloom

It ain't a simple road it takes both of us to stand

Building up a shelter with a steady honest hand

Pre-Chorus

Every single scar is a battle we have won

Wouldn't trade this life for the world under the sun

The noise outside is loud but inside we find our peace

Look me in the eyes we're not about to cease

(We're not about to cease)

Chorus

'Cause a love like this will never back down

Built a castle tall where they only saw the ground

Hand in hand through mud cutting through the heavy gray

Guarding every spark so the darkness stays away

Step by step every dream we chase

Keeping every promise right here in this place

We are in this for the long run no turning back

Bridge

Let the storms roll in let the foundations shake

We got roots running deeper than a heavy wind can break

Swore to stand as one through the bitter and the sweet

Every time we hit the dirt we landed on our feet

(Landed on our feet)

Look at us standing here

Guitar & Piano Solo

Chorus Final

'Cause a love like this will never back down

Built a castle tall where they only saw the ground

Hand in hand through mud cutting through the heavy gray

Guarding every spark so the darkness stays away

Step by step every dream we chase

Keeping every promise right here in this place

We are in this for the long run no turning back

Outro

Holding on to our story

One day at a time

To the very end

(Mm-hmm)

To the very end
