[Verse 1] Met you where the gravel turns to dust and corn Sunburn on your shoulders thrift-store cutoff worn You laughed at my accent I teased your city shoes Two worlds on one dirt road somehow started to choose [Chorus] They’ll write us down in stories someday Two kids, one map, and we both ran away From all their small talk, all their small cages Country girl, city boy biggest love story for the ages For the ages, for the ages Biggest love story for the ages [Verse 2] Homecoming in August band out of tune and loud (oh yeah) You spun me in the headlights we disappeared from the crowd You said, “I don’t fit here but I fit next to you” I said, “Then take this back road I’ll show you every view” [Chorus] They’ll write us down in stories someday Two kids, one map, and we both ran away From all their small talk, all their small cages Country girl, city boy biggest love story for the ages For the ages, for the ages Biggest love story for the ages [Bridge – Rap] Pulled up, city plates, dust on the chrome Mama said, “Careful, that town ain’t home” But you hopped in, boots up on my dash Laugh lines brighter than my high beams flash You’re Sunday choir, I’m weekday rush You talk in sunsets, I talk too much Passed that county sign, we crossed that line Your hand in mine turned wrong place right time Every mile marker felt like fate Told your old fears, “Baby, I’ll wait” If the world’s too small for the plans we make We’ll build it bigger with the hearts we break (hey) [Chorus] They’ll write us down in stories someday Two kids, one map, and we both ran away From all their small talk, all their small cages Country girl, city boy biggest love story for the ages We’re the proof that a long shot blazes Barn lights, bright nights, skipping all the stages From first shy smile to matching last names pages Country girl, city boy biggest love story for the ages For the ages, for the ages Biggest love story for the ages
