///*****/// [Intro | acoustic guitar fingerpicked | vinyl crackle | distant hum] Yeah… been a minute now [Verse | melodic rap | light 808 | sparse banjo] Been a minute since I rolled down that two-lane blacktop Dust on my boots, radio stuck on that back dial Truck bed rattlin’, cooler slid side to side Moon hang low like it know what I’m missin’ tonight Cheap beer laughter echo off a gravel road Front porch talk where the truth just overflowed No city noise, just a screen door slam And her lip gloss shine in a mason jar tan [Pre-Chorus | emotional build-up | rising pads | light harmonies] Now I’m miles away, concrete under my feet But it don’t taste right, nah it ain’t that sweet [Chorus | anthemic chorus | stacked harmonies | full band] Damn, I miss them sweet lips more than sweet tea That slow drawl talk got a hold on me Fields wide open where the wild hearts run free Yeah I left that life but it ain’t left me Damn, I miss them nights, tailgate and dirt roads Bonfire sparks and her hand in my clothes City lights cold, don’t hit the same beat I’d trade it all back for them sweet lips and sweet tea [Verse 2 | heavier 808 | rhythmic flow] Now it’s high-rise views and a fast-paced lane Same old songs but they don’t feel the same No crickets chirpin’, just sirens and tires No slow burn love, just quick flame fires She had that sun-kissed, wild kinda grace Barefoot dancing, heaven in a small-town place Didn’t need much, just a Friday night And her laugh cut clean like a porch light [Chorus | anthemic chorus | fuller drums] Damn, I miss them sweet lips more than sweet tea That slow drawl talk got a hold on me Fields wide open where the wild hearts run free Yeah I left that life but it ain’t left me [Bridge | breakdown | half-time | slide guitar lead] [half-time breakdown | minimal drums | slide guitar] If I take that turn, head back where it bends… Would she still be there… or just memories again… [Chorus | explosive drop | crowd-style vocals] Damn, I miss them sweet lips more than sweet tea That back porch kiss still chasing me Dust in the air, yeah that’s where I’d be If I never chased what I thought I’d need [Outro | fade out | acoustic + hum] [fade out | soft vocal hum] Yeah… been a minute now…
