Our Song:I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says baby is something wrong?
I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song
And he says...
[Chorus:]
Our song is the slamming screen door,
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day
Had gone all wrong and been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
And the note that said...
[Repeat Chorus]
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song...
Cause our song is the slamming screen door
Sneaking out late, tapping on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date "man, I didn't kiss him, and I should have"
And when I got home, before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
And I wrote down our song
Mary's Song:She said I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shine in the sky. The pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us. Growing up and falling in love. And our momma smiled and rolled their eyes.
And said..Oh my, my, my..
Take me back to the house in the backyard trees. You said you would beat me up, you were bigger then me. You never did, You never did.
Take me back when our world was one big lie. And I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried. Just two kids. You and I.
Oh my, my, my..
Well I was sixteen when suddenly, I wasn't that little girl you used to see. But your eyes still shined. Like pretty lights.
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us. Never believe we would fall in love. And our momma smiled and rolled their eyes.
And said..Oh my, my, my..
Take me back to the creek thats reaching dark. Two A.M, riding in your truck. Yet all I need, is here next to me.
Take me back to the time we had our very first fight. Slamming our doors instead of kissing goodnight. You stayed outside 'til the morning light.
Oh my, my, my, my
A few years ago when comin' around. We were sitting at our favorite spot in town. Then you looked at me, got down on one knee.
Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle. Our whole town came and our mommas cried. You said I do and I did too.
Take me home when we met so many years before. Where we rock our babies on the very front porch. After all this time, you and I.
When I'll be 87 you'll be 89. I'll still look at you like the stars that shine in the sky.
Oh my, my, my..
