[Verse 1] Dust on my boots and rust on that old Ford That fix-it-up truck was all I could afford We were just kids then, lettin' off steam And chasing down some teenagers' dream Now the years have turned those dreams to reality And our story's got a lot more clarity I'm back in town and saw you at the dance Figured I'd mosey over and take one last chance. [Chorus] 'Cause the dirt roads we walked turned to highways we drove Past the town limits and wherever life would rove We weathered storms, learned how to stand the rain Got a little less wild and a little more sane But looking in your eyes I still see my girl The timing feels right; let's give it a whirl We ain't kids anymore, just a little less fragile A few more wrinkles and a little less agile. [Verse 2] Your kids are all grown; you got a couple of dogs I'm just an old driver who keeps a travel log We're both a little worn, like an old guitar But the melody's still there, no matter where we are The broken strings we had, they all got fixed somehow Maybe the song we started can finally play out now We're like two old fence posts standing by the road Through the years of livin' our true strength showed. [Instrumental] [Bridge] Our young love burned too hot and fast to keep Now the slow embers are warmer and deep We earned these wrinkles, earned this second glance This might be our last, best shot at romance. [Chorus] 'Cause the dirt roads we walked turned to highways we drove Past the town limits and wherever life would rove We weathered storms, learned how to stand the rain Got a little less wild and a little more sane But looking in your eyes I still see my girl The timing feels right; let's give it a whirl We ain't kids anymore, just a little less fragile A few more wrinkles and a little less agile. [Outro] Yeah, I look in your eyes and my feelings are strong. Turns out home was here all along. Home was here all along.
