Lyrics
[Verse 1 - acoustic guitar + harmonica]
Dusty roads beneath our boots,
With the sun setting low, it's where our love took root.
You and I, like a melody and a rhyme,
With every twist and turn, we dance through time.
The stars are our witness, the moon lights the way,
In this little town where we've chosen to stay.
[Chorus - soft harmonies + pedal steel]
Oh, play me a tune on that old guitar,
Through the country roads, here you are.
With your hand in mine, we're never apart,
Your love's like a song that's deep in my heart.
[Verse 2 - steady fingerpicking + vocal intimacy]
Pull up a chair by the fire's warm glow,
Tales of our dreams in the twilight flow.
Your laughter's a river, running wild and free,
I'd travel the world just to keep you with me.
We've wandered through storms, faced the darkest nights,
But in your warm embrace, everything feels right.
[Chorus - richer guitar layering + background vocals]
Oh, play me a tune on that old guitar,
Through the country roads, here you are.
With your hand in mine, we're never apart,
Your love's like a song that's deep in my heart.
[Bridge - instrumental swell + emotional vocal lift]
In fields of gold, through the trials we've seen,
You're the light in my life, the fuel in my dream.
We'll dance till we're old, till the sun fades away,
Every moment together, a treasure we'll sway.
[Verse 3 - storytelling tone + slide guitar accents]
With you, every sunset's a canvas divine,
Painting stories of love in the warm evening shine.
Let's carve out our names in the bark of that tree,
A promise to love for all eternity.
Raindrops may fall, but our love's a warm rain,
Through every heartache, we'll rise up again.
[Chorus - full band country swell]
Oh, play me a tune on that old guitar,
Through the country roads, here you are.
With your hand in mine, we're never apart,
Your love's like a song that's deep in my heart.
[Outro - soft acoustic fade]
So here's to the nights under starlit skies,
The whispers of love, the dreams in your eyes.
In a world that keeps changing, one thing will stay true,
Forever, my darling, I'll always love you.
Oh, play me a tune on that old guitar,
With you by my side, we'll go very far.
