[Pre-Intro]
Hearts don’t settle in aaa place like thiss
[Intro]
He’s got boots worn down from walkin’ miles,
And a Bible in his glovebox he ain’t read in a while.
He’s been kissin’ girls with empty eyess,
Who leave before the mornin’ liight
[Verse]
He tried the bars, he tried the apps,
But love don’t grow in a place like that.
Where whiskey burns and lies come cheap,
And no one knows what true love meeans
[Bridge]
Hearts don’t settleee in a world like thiss.
Where sweet turns sour by the second dance,
And good folks barely get a chance.
He’s prayin’ hard for somethin’ real to missss —
But hearts don’t settle in a world like thisss
[Chorus]
His mama told him “love takes time,”
But the world’s too fast and full of lies.
He’s seen good girls trade grace for gold,
And bad men take advantage it’s getting old
He’s got scars from tryin’ to stay truue ,
In a world that don’t know what truth can dooo
Still writes love songs no one hears,
Strums his pain into the atmosphere
[Guitar Solo]
[Female Vocal]
Cause hearts don’t settle in a world like this,
vows get drowned in whiskey and gin,.
[Female Vocal]
dreams fall short of where they begin.
He’s holdin’ on, love’s a hit-or-miss —
hearts don’t settle in a world like this.
[Outro]
Yeah hearts don’t settle in a worrld like thisss
