歌詞

[Intro]
[Verse]
Gravel crunching under my boot
Screen door singing a rusty truth
Same old sign with the missing E
Waiting there to welcome me
Vinyl seats and coffee steam
Fading like a Technicolor dream
Found the spot where the light hits low
Where we sat twenty years ago
[Pre-Chorus]
I slide into that velvet blue
Searching for a trace of you
The air is thick with sugar and pine
I'm stepping back across the line
[Chorus]
Tracing names in the laminate wood
Learning things I never understood
Apple pie and a side of steel
That’s the way the healing feels
You said Honey keep your chin held high
Underneath this big old country sky
Sweetness hides inside the grit
And I’m still living every bit
[Post-Chorus]
Living every bit
Yeah the grit and the grace of it
[Verse]
You wore hands worked down to bone
But your heart was a stepping stone
Taught me how to plant my feet
When the bitter winds began to beat
You didn't cry when the crops went dry
Just looked up at the empty sky
Now I’m sitting where you used to lean
Counting blessings in the in-between
[Pre-Chorus]
I slide into that velvet blue
Searching for a trace of you
The air is thick with sugar and pine
I'm stepping back across the line
[Chorus]
Tracing names in the laminate wood
Learning things I never understood
Apple pie and a side of steel
That’s the way the healing feels
You said Honey keep your chin held high
Underneath this big old country sky
Sweetness hides inside the grit
And I’m still living every bit
[Bridge]
The waitress asks if I’m okay
I just smile and look away
I see your ghost in the kitchen light
Telling me I’m gonna be alright
Yeah I’m gonna be alright
Keep the fire burning through the night
[Solo]
[Breakdown]
No more tears on this table top
Just a love that’ll never stop
One more cup and a final crumb
Look at how far we have come
[Chorus]
Tracing names in the laminate wood
Learning things I never understood
Apple pie and a side of steel
That’s the way the healing feels
You said Honey keep your chin held high
Underneath this big old country sky
Sweetness hides inside the grit
And I’m still living every bit
[Post-Chorus]
Living every bit
Yeah the grit and the grace of it
In the corner booth
Finding the truth
[Outro]
