This Heart Beats

Lyrics

Verse 1

Down by the riverbank where the willows cry,
Old pickup trucks under the July sky,
We carved our names, in that old oak tree,
Where you stole a kiss and a piece of me.

Verse 2

Long dusty roads where the stories unfold,
Your hand in mine, feel the warmth in the cold.
Sunsets paint the heavens with hues of red,
Promises made in the words we said.

Chorus

This heart beats strong under wide-open skies,
Dreams as deep as the stars are high.
In a song that plays on a country night,
You're the melody that holds me tight.

Verse 3

Jeans faded blue with the passage of time,
Back porch steps where we'd sit and unwind.
Your laugh fills the air in the cool evening breeze,
Moments like these are sweet as peach trees.

Verse 4

We danced in the kitchen on a rainy night,
The radio playing our soundtrack right.
Love written clear on a well-worn path,
With you by my side, I've got all I could have.

Chorus

This heart beats strong under wide-open skies,
Dreams as deep as the stars are high.
In a song that plays on a country night,
You're the melody that holds me tight.

Chorus

This heart beats strong under wide-open skies,
Dreams as deep as the stars are high.
In a song that plays on a country night,
You're the melody that holds me tight.

Chorus

This heart beats strong under wide-open skies,
Dreams as deep as the stars are high.
In a song that plays on a country night,
You're the melody that holds me tight.
