[Verse 1] I walk these backroads humble and slow With my old guitar and a heart on the road Found a low-hanging sky, felt the wind start to moan Now I’m playing these strings, but I’m playing ’em alone [Pre-Chorus] Every cloud said stay, every bird passed on by I kept room for one at the edge of my life This heart of mine keeps hittin’ that wall One more empty chair, one more long haul [Chorus] I don’t want to watch the sunset alone I want your hand forever in my own I don’t want to walk this road by myself I want your heart where I can find it well I want to write a love song I want to write a love song With your name right in the middle of it all Right in the middle of it all [Verse 2] There’s a screen door swinging, starlight on the porch A blue jean kind of truth I can’t ignore I can chase these white lines, drive till the morning light But can I build a home under open sky? [Pre-Chorus] So if you’re out there with a spare two arms Come pull me close, come sing my heart [Chorus] I don’t want to watch the sunset alone I want your hand forever in my own I don’t want to walk this road by myself I want your heart where I can find it well I want to write a love song I want to write a love song With your name right in the middle of it all Right in the middle of it all [Bridge] Love don’t need to be fancy, it don’t need to be loud Just two hearts on the shoreline, feet in the ground And if I get the chance, I’ll say it plain and true No big poetry, baby, just me and you [Final Chorus] I don’t want to watch the sunset alone I want your hand forever in my own I don’t want to walk this road by myself I want your heart where I can find it well I want to write a love song I want to write a love song With your name right in the middle of it all Right in the middle of it all Yeah, I want to write a love song With your name right in the middle of it all
