Verse 1: Can't believe you sat through all the arguing All the yelling and the rest You didn't flinch at uncle Jerry's joke or that thing that he did next Tried to warn you off so many times But despite all my protests Oh! Chorus: My whole life I have tried To put distance from my roots Thought it simply wasn't good Thought that no one understood I was just so scared to let you in But now I don't remember why Can't believe you're in my life So glad that we gave it a try! Yeah! Verse 2: You made my dad choke on his beer Never seen him laugh so freaking hard And then you made my grandma cheer?! She's always on her guard! I should've never worried at all, dear You slayed with the whole backyard! Oh! Chorus: My whole life I have tried To put distance from my roots Thought it simply wasn't good Thought that no one understood I was just so scared to let you in But now I don't remember why Can't believe you're in my life So glad that we gave it a try! Girl... Bridge: I wanna make you turkey sandwiches and I wanna bake you pie I wanna see our life in ten years And I know we're gonna fly We're gonna go the distance girl And now I can see why Oh! Chorus: My whole life I have tried To put distance from my roots Thought it simply wasn't good Thought that no one understood I was just so scared to let you in But now I don't remember why Can't believe you're in my life So glad that we gave it a try!
