Porch Light Heartbeat (Cover) sarah chase

V5.5

[Verse 1] You pull up late in that dusty Ford Kick your boots off by my front porch You say “girl, I had a long-long day” But your smile already melts it away [Chorus] You’re my porch light heartbeat Flicker in the dark when I’m half asleep Got my hoodie on your little bare feet Dancing in the kitchen to a slow backbeat Baby, hold me, breathe deep Let the world go quiet when you’re close to me In this small-town, slow-down, low-key You’re my porch light heartbeat [Verse 2] You trace hearts on my old tattoos Steal my hat and my last excuse You say “boy, don’t run from something real” Now my guard’s in the driveway, my heart’s on the wheel [Chorus] You’re my porch light heartbeat Flicker in the dark when I’m half asleep Got my hoodie on your little bare feet Dancing in the kitchen to a slow backbeat Baby, hold me, breathe deep Let the world go quiet when you’re close to me In this small-town, slow-down, low-key You’re my porch light heartbeat [Bridge – Rap] Yeah I was all late nights, wrong roads, fast lanes Hard shell, cold talk, kept the past chained Then you slid in, sundress, rolling your eyes Said “you ain’t that tough, I can see through the lies” Now it’s pickup dust in the gold sunset Your head on my chest when the sky turns red If forever got a sound, it’s your laugh off-key Singing every little broken country song at me (yeah) Got your lipstick prints on my coffee mug You turned my old house to a home called “us” If love is a gamble, I’ll bet that ring ‘Cause losing everything’s worth what you bring (uh) [Chorus] You’re my porch light heartbeat Flicker in the dark when I’m half asleep Got my hoodie on your little bare feet Dancing in the kitchen to a slow backbeat Baby, hold me, breathe deep Let the world go quiet when you’re close to me In this small-town, slow-down, low-key You’re my porch light heartbeat (my porch light heartbeat)
