[Verse 1]
You liked your coffee
Burnt and black
I spilled mine laughing
In your old truck cab
You missed the turn
I missed the cue
But somehow every wrong road
Led back to you
[Chorus]
Baby, I was headed nowhere fast
You were talking ’bout forever, scared to ask
Two hearts, two hands
Shaking on a plan
Didn’t know what forever would do
But I know every sunrise, every midnight
Feels like backroads to you
[Verse 2]
You leave your boots
By the kitchen door
I steal your flannel
You just smile, want more
We fight like thunder
Kiss like summer rain
We say “I’m sorry”
Then we start again
[Chorus]
Baby, I was headed nowhere fast
You were talking ’bout forever, scared to ask
Two hearts, two hands
Shaking on a plan
Didn’t know what forever would do
But I know every sunrise, every midnight
Feels like backroads to you
[Bridge]
We’ve been broke
We’ve been blessed
We’ve been a little bit
Of beautiful mess
If I lose my way
You pull me through
One look, one touch
I’m home with you (yeah)
[Chorus]
Baby, I was headed nowhere fast
Till you taught me how to stay, not just pass
Two hearts, two hands
Holding to this land
Didn’t know what forever could do
But I know every sunrise, every midnight
Every detour, wrong turn, green light
Feels like backroads to you (backroads to you)
