[Verse 1]
You were up before the sunrise
Old blue cooler in the back of your truck
Tackle box rattling
Coffee in a thermos
Mud on your boots
Said
"Wish me luck"
I was sneaking down the gravel road
Camo jacket and my granddad's hat
Tag in my pocket
Wind in the cedar
Heart beating steady like that
[Chorus]
You chase the river
I walk the ridge
You’re on the dock while I’m by the bridge
You cast your line
I follow tracks
Different paths
Same way back
He goes fishing
She goes hunting
Still our hearts keep running
To the same front porch at the end of the day
Different ways to pray for a little grace
[Verse 2]
Your phone buzzed by the tackle bag
Picture of me in the tall dry grass
You sent a shot of that sunrise shimmer
Said
"Wish you were here to see it last"
Met you later where the roads run together
Truck bed blanket and a paper plate meal
You smelled like river
I smelled like timber
But your hand in mine felt like home
Felt real
[Chorus]
You chase the river
I walk the ridge
You’re on the dock while I’m by the bridge
You cast your line
I follow tracks
Different paths
Same way back
He goes fishing
She goes hunting
Still our hearts keep running
To the same front porch at the end of the day
Different ways to pray for a little grace
[Bridge]
Maybe love is just that simple
Find your wild
Let me find mine
Meet in the middle of the gravel and the clover
Two dusty trucks
One sunset sky (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
You chase the river
I walk the ridge
You’re on the dock while I’m by the bridge
You cast your line
I follow tracks
Different paths
Same way back
He goes fishing
She goes hunting
Still our hearts keep running
To the same front porch at the end of the day
Different ways to pray for a little grace
