The Porch Light Road (versie 2)

Verse

Dust on my boots where the gravel meets gold

Sixteen summers running wild and cold

Mama's laughter carries across the yard

Screen door swinging like it don't know we're scarred

Pre-Chorus

So how do I leave this porch behind

Every step feels like saying goodbye again

Tell me how the road can still hold home

Is it something only the heart knows

Chorus

This is the porch light road

Where every exit sign turns to gold

Every mile back says you're mine, not gone

I'm just tracing where we used to roam

Verse

Four years gone and I still drive through towns that glow

Same diner booth, same radio show

Every face looks like a door I never opened wide

So I keep driving till the dark turns light

Pre-Chorus

So how do I leave this porch behind

Every step feels like saying goodbye again

Tell me how the road can still hold home

Is it something only the heart knows

Chorus

This is the porch light road

Where every exit sign turns to gold

Every mile back says you're mine, not gone

I'm just tracing where we used to roam

Bridge

Maybe leaving was never goodbye at all

Maybe every road is a path I still have to walk

The porch keeps burning bright through any storm

And I'm learning how to be home without being gone

Chorus

This is the porch light road

Where every exit sign turns to gold

Every mile back says you're mine, not gone

I'm just tracing where we used to roam
