Mama's Porch Light (версия 2)

Verse

Mama's porch light still swings slow by the mailbox creak

Same paint she picked out back in '77

Screen door slaps shut with a rhythm I know

Every summer I'm 17 again here

Chorus

So come on up, sit on the rocker beside me

Watch that firefly dance off into the cedar tree

Nothing's changed since the world got loud

Just you, just this porch light, and the sound of the river

Verse

Her old recipe book by the cracked kitchen table

Notes in her handwriting, a language I still can read

Screen door creaks open wide for someone who was late

Same gravel parking lot where we learned to drive at night

Chorus

So come on up, sit on the rocker beside me

Watch that firefly dance off into the cedar tree

Nothing's changed since the world got loud

Just you, just this porch light, and the sound of the river

Bridge

Maybe I'm just holding onto what still feels like home

Not the whole world, just this old porch swing alone

The rest can wait

Chorus

So come on up, sit on the rocker beside me

Watch that firefly dance off into the cedar tree

Nothing's changed since the world got loud

Just you, just this porch light, and the sound of the river
