Fifty Yard Line

[Verse 1] We were seventeen, wild and clean, Friday night lights and hometown dreams. You in my jacket, sittin’ in the stands, Cheerin’ me on with your soft little hands. I was too dumb to say what I felt, You were the prize and I played it too well— But girl, if time had a rewind sign, I’d meet you back at the fifty yard line. [Chorus] Right there, center of it all, Underneath the lights, where we let it fall. Kissin’ like we had nothin’ to lose, Dancin’ in the dark to a Springsteen tune. Yeah, I’ve chased dreams and neon signs, But none of it sticks like your hand in mine. So meet me where the stars still shine— Let’s fall in love on the fifty yard line. [Verse 2] I’ve been coast to coast, stage to stage, Played my heart out, turned the page. But every melody leads back to you, That smile, that laugh, those worn-out boots. You’re the one that got away too soon, But I swear I still see you in the moon. If you ever miss that small-town time— I’m still waitin’ at the fifty yard line. [Chorus] Right there, center of it all, Underneath the lights, where we let it fall. Kissin’ like we had nothin’ to lose, Dancin’ in the dark to a Springsteen tune. Yeah, I’ve chased dreams and neon signs, But none of it sticks like your hand in mine. So meet me where the stars still shine— Let’s fall in love on the fifty yard line. [Bridge] I’ll bring the boom box, you bring that grin, We’ll laugh like we’re kids all over again. Forget the world, just me and you, One more shot at something true. [Final Chorus] Right here, center of it all, Let’s write the future with a high school drawl. Kiss me like we ran outta time, Then stay forever on the fifty yard line. Yeah, we got age and stories behind— But I still want you for a lifetime. So meet me where it all felt right— Back in love on the fifty yard line.
