Backroads Ft Prophit

**[Verse 1]** You said those downtown nights and neon windows Never filled the empty space. All those fast lanes and expensive dreams Still couldn't slow your pace. Me, I've only got an old pickup truck, Bench seat worn from years gone by. But I've got room for you beside me, girl, And a sky that's twice as wide. **[Pre-Chorus]** If I grin a little longer, Or lose my words halfway, It's probably 'cause you're looking at me In that kind of way. **[Chorus]** Don't mind me, I'm just talking backroads, Talking front porches, talking slow. Talking sunsets over gravel roads, Places only country hearts know. If I call you darlin', don't overthink it, That's just how we let love grow. A little sweet tea, a little front-seat dreaming, Maybe you'll end up calling this home. **[Verse 2]** You said city lights were pretty, But they never showed the stars. Been too long since you watched the heavens Stretching farther than the bars. Let's pull off where the blacktop ends, Kill the headlights, let night unfold. Catch a few fireflies dancing around us, Watch the whole sky turn to gold. **[Pre-Chorus]** Ain't trying to impress you, Just telling you what's true. Life feels a whole lot better When I'm sitting next to you. **[Chorus]** Don't mind me, I'm just talking backroads, Talking bonfires burning low. Talking old songs through the speakers, Windows down wherever we go. If I steal your hand while we're driving, Girl, that's all I've ever known. A little moonlight, a little small-town magic, Maybe we'll write a story of our own. **[Bridge]** Maybe it ain't the place that changes someone, Maybe it's who they're with. Maybe love sounds a little different When it rides on a southern wind. **[Final Chorus]** Don't mind me, I'm just talking country, Talking simple, talking true. Talking every little dream I never knew Until I ran into you. If forever starts with one slow evening, Watching another sunset glow, Then pull a little closer, smile a little longer... We'll let the backroads take us home.
