Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, you grew up under my roof
Now you’re fifty years gone by
Got a life on the other side
Of this old map I know by heart
You chase your own sunrise
And I stayed with these fields
But I still know your laugh
Like I know the turn of my wheel
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t walk the same roads
We don’t wear the same boots
Still your name at my table
Feels like coming home to you
[Chorus]
Across the miles, you’re my son
Across the miles, still number one
Different lives, different ways
Same love in the family name
Across the miles, I see
The boy you were still lives in me
Fifty years, and here we are
Same old heart, just farther apart
[Verse 2]
You got city dust on your coat
I got red clay on my hands
You talk fast, I talk slow
But I still understand
You learned your own hard lessons
I learned to let you be
And the best thing I ever gave you
Was a love that lets you breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t walk the same roads
We don’t wear the same boots
Still your name at my table
Feels like coming home to you
[Chorus]
Across the miles, you’re my son
Across the miles, still number one
Different lives, different ways
Same love in the family name
Across the miles, I see
The boy you were still lives in me
Fifty years, and here we are
Same old heart, just farther apart
[Bridge]
If the world leans hard on you
And the road runs rough and long
Remember where your first home was
Remember where you belong
A man can change his whole life
Still carry where he’s from
And no matter how far you roam
You’ll always be my son
[Final Chorus]
Across the miles, you’re my son
Across the miles, still number one
Different lives, different ways
Same love in the family name
Across the miles, I see
The boy you were still lives in me
Fifty years, and here we are
Same old heart, just farther apart
[Outro]
Same old heart
Just farther apart
