Verse 1
Ain’t no choir-boy shine on my name
Got a gravel-road voice and a hard-earned ache
Hands stay dirty, heart don’t fake
I been living just south of wrong
I don’t sell dreams I can’t afford
I clock my time, I carry my load
But when I pull you close after work gets old
Girl, that’s where I’m strong
Pre-Chorus
I don’t do perfect, don’t do pretend
But I’ll ride with you ‘til the bitter end
Chorus
This ain’t your average love song, baby
It’s low lights, slow nights, kinda hazy
Cold beer sweat and truth too heavy
Still staying all night long
It’s outlaw love with an R&B sway
Two tired hearts finding a better way
If you want clean, you got the wrong song
This is love — just not your average love song
Verse 2
I don’t buy diamonds to prove a thing
I buy time when the phone don’t ring
I’ll sit dead quiet, let the silence sing
When the world caves in on you
End of the day, one glass poured slow
Bourbon burn, let the hard part go
I ain’t got much, but what I know
Girl, I’ll give it to you
Pre-Chorus
I won’t promise Heaven above
But I’ll give you honest, working-man love
Chorus
This ain’t your average love song, baby
No white lace, no Sunday-maybe
It’s bare skin truths and slow-burn crazy
Learning how to hold on
It’s dashboard glow and midnight drives
Hands locked tight through real-life fights
If you want safe, you got the wrong song
This is love — just not your average love song
Bridge (Half-time, deep R&B pocket)
Lay your head on my worn-out chest
Hear that beat — yeah, it’s doing its best
Still thumping through the weight and stress
Of a long damn day
We don’t need saving, just need space
A little grace in a quiet place
If loving you’s a risk I take
Baby, I’m all the way in
Break (spoken / sung)
I don’t need smoke…
Just something strong…
And you right here when the night gets long.
Chorus (Last — fuller, dirtier groove)
This ain’t your average love song, baby
It’s earned trust, not something flashy
It’s broken men still learning how to say it
Without lying in the tone
It’s outlaw slow with a soul-deep groove
A little danger, a lotta truth
If you want fake, keep moving on
This is love — not your average love song
Outro
Yeah it’s rough, it’s real, it’s grown
Hits harder when you’re alone
Turn it up, let the bass roll strong
Not your average love song.
