Little bare feet running through the green grass
He spent all summer tryna grow
With a hush of the wind through the old oak trees
And a, "Mama, can I drink from the hose?"
The chickens got out and the dogs are barking
I left the laundry hanging in the rain
Life's wild and crazy, but it's all ours, baby
And I wouldn't have it any other way
Don't know what I did
To get me a view like this
Sixteen years looking into your eyes
Couldn't have dreamed it better if I tried
Ain't nobody knows
What's coming down that road
Keep your hand in my hand 'til the sun burns out
And tell me, what is life right now?
Got an old guitar and a song in my heart
And a band packed into a van
And I'm the gypsy queen of the heartbreak scene
And the radio don't give a damn
I've been baring my soul to a microphone
Since I was barely fifteen
Now my name's on the marquee and I can't believe
That they're singing every word with me
Don't know what I did
To get me a view like this
After ten thousand hours doing my time
Couldn't have dreamed it better if I tried
Ain't nobody knows
What's coming down that road
Get to do it all tomorrow in a brand new town
Now tell me, what is life right now?
We've had our fair share of dark days
Spun our wheels in some heartache
But I'd like to take this moment now
And put it in a picture frame
Don't know what I did
To get me a view like this
Sixteen years looking into your eyes
Couldn't have dreamed it better if I tried
Ain't nobody knows
What's coming down that road
Keep your hand in my hand 'til the sun burns out
And tell me, what is life right now?
Put your hand in my hand 'til the sun burns out
And tell me, what is life right now?
Yeah, yeah
