(Verse 1) Barefoot on the porch swing, fireflies in the pines Mama's sweet tea brewing, daddy humming honky-tonk lines Didn't know it then, but time was standing still Just a whisper of forever, on that Georgia hill (Verse 2) Sneakin' out to the river, first taste of cheap wine Radio hummin' low, beneath the moonlight shine Your hand in mine, a spark ignites the flame Didn't know it then, but nothin' would be the same (Chorus) First kiss, first laugh, first wrong turn made Every scar and lesson learned, a price gladly paid Heaven spilled over, in a Mason jar full throttle We caught lightning in a bottle (Verse 3) Years flew by like tumbleweeds across a dusty plain Through sunshine and through heartache, the love remained Built a life together, brick by weathered brick Every crack and imperfection, a love that will not stick (Verse 4) Now the grandkids are runnin' wild, just like we used to do Fireflies still dancin', sky a brilliant blue Holding your hand tighter, wrinkles around my eyes This ain't the end of forever, it's just a new sunrise (Bridge) They say time keeps on tickin', and seasons come and go But the memories we've made, they'll forever glow Like embers in the darkness, a warm and steady light Guiding us through the shadows, holding us through the night (Chorus) First kiss, first laugh, first wrong turn made Every scar and lesson learned, a price gladly paid Heaven spilled over, in a Mason jar full throttle We caught lightning in a bottle (Outro) Yeah, we caught lightning in a bottle And we'll hold on tight, forever. Lightning in a bottle. Our forever.
