Fire in the Porch Light

Verse

Screen door creakin', porch light hummin' low

Salt on my collarbone where the summer sun don't go

Sixteen and reckless with a quarter in my fist

Every stoplight's gonna be our first kiss

I'm ridin' shotgun, radio cranked way up high

The whole world feel like it's just you and I

Pre-Chorus

So what if nobody's watchin'?

What if this is all there is?

Chorus

Let the fire in the porch light burn so bright tonight

We don't need tomorrow, we got tonight to hold tight

Every porch step rattlin' underneath our feet

This is forever 'fore it's even real, ain't no street

So keep your hands on my waist like you already own this town

I'm burning every clock down and I don't wanna stop now

Verse

Neon sign flickerin' over the parking lot line

Your hair caught in the wind, your laughter got a mind of its own

We stole cigarettes from my brother's truck, we thought it was a thrill

The fireflies were blinkin' like they knew what we felt

I'm not scared of tomorrow 'cause I ain't made it yet

Pre-Chorus

So what if nobody's watchin'?

What if this is all there is?

Chorus

Let the fire in the porch light burn so bright tonight

We don't need tomorrow, we got tonight to hold tight

Every porch step rattlin' underneath our feet

This is forever 'fore it's even real, ain't no street

So keep your hands on my waist like you already own this town

I'm burning every clock down and I don't wanna stop now

Bridge

Some day we'll sit under that same light, older than tonight

Still chasing something, still holding onto the fight

But right here, right now, ain't nobody tellin' us no

Not your momma, not my daddy, not the clock on the wall, not the law

Just this heartbeat and whatever comes next, whatever it is

Chorus

Let the fire in the porch light burn so bright tonight

We don't need tomorrow, we got tonight to hold tight

Every porch step rattlin' underneath our feet

This is forever 'fore it's even real, ain't no street

So keep your hands on my waist like you already own this town

I'm burning every clock down and I don't wanna stop now
