Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Passing the rusted welcome sign Everything’s falling back in line The diner’s looking a little grey Since the day I ran away Twenty-seven and driving slow Learning things I didn't know [Pre-Chorus] Dust on the windshield glass Watching the years just pass I used to want the city lights Now I crave these country nights [Chorus] It’s eighty years of golden light Fireflies dancing in the night Chipped mugs and coffee steam Living out a simple dream I’m coming back to the start With a grateful, heavy heart [Post-Chorus] Oh, let the banjo play I’m home to stay [Verse] Found my name in the old oak tree A girl I used to be Carved it deep with a rusty blade Before the memories started to fade Tucked her recipe in my purse Better for the better, not the worse [Pre-Chorus] Sweet smell of summer rain Washing away the city pain I thought I needed something more But it was waiting at the door [Chorus] It’s eighty years of golden light Fireflies dancing in the night Chipped mugs and coffee steam Living out a simple dream I’m coming back to the start With a grateful, heavy heart [Bridge] It wasn’t just a gravel road Or a heavy, lonesome load It was the flour on her hands And the way she understands Ordinary miracles in every bite Everything is gonna be alright [Solo] [Chorus] It’s eighty years of golden light Fireflies dancing in the night Chipped mugs and coffee steam Living out a simple dream I’m coming back to the start With a grateful, heavy heart [Post-Chorus] Oh, let the fiddle play I’m home to stay [Outro]
