[Verse 1]
Met you by the feed store gate
Work boots worn and a tired-out face
You laughed like a match in rain
Turned my whole hard week in one day
I was all talk, all jaw, no nerve
You read my quiet before I worked
Said, "Boy, if you want this thing
You gotta show up, you gotta mean what you sing"
[Pre-Chorus]
We fumbled, we folded, we tried
Kept two broken worlds side by side
You'd storm out mad, I'd shut down
Still we'd circle back around
[Chorus]
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
Call me close when the house feels cold
We talk it out, we don't let go
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
(GrizzlyJones)
One hard road, one soft heart
Misunderstood, but never apart
[Verse 2]
I came home late with dust on my sleeves
You had your arms crossed, that look on me
Thought my silence meant I didn't care
But I was carrying more than I could bear
You said "Look at me, stay right here"
So I set that pride down in the chair
We learned love ain't loud all day
It's the small repair and the honest say
[Pre-Chorus]
We fumbled, we folded, we tried
Kept two stubborn hearts alive
If the night got sharp and long
We'd sing each other back strong
[Chorus]
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
Call me close when the house feels cold
We talk it out, we don't let go
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
(GrizzlyJones)
One hard road, one soft heart
Misunderstood, but never apart
[Bridge]
Now I know what forever costs
It’s the patience through what almost lost
Your hand in mine, my stubborn grin
We keep on choosing us again
[Final Chorus]
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
Call me close when the house feels cold
We talk it out, we don't let go
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
(GrizzlyJones)
One hard road, one soft heart
Misunderstood, but never apart
Say my name, GrizzlyJones
(GrizzlyJones)
We made a home from all that strain
And every fight made love hit harder again
