Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] We learned to burn toast In that first apartment Hand-me-down couch Springs pokin’ through We fixed up a Ford With duct tape and prayin’ Somehow it carried A whole life of us two [Chorus] We had good years, good fights, good stories Laugh-till-you-cry, say-you’re-sorry Midnight talks on a Monday floor We had worn-out boots and a beat-up driveway But I’d drive it back that same old highway Even if we don’t end up side by side Good years, good love, good goodbye [Verse 2] We outgrew the plans That we drew on napkins You needed mountains I needed sky We packed up the plates Split the records and records You took the sunrise I took late nights [Chorus] We had good years, good fights, good stories Laugh-till-you-cry, say-you’re-sorry Midnight talks on a Monday floor We had worn-out boots and a beat-up driveway But I’d drive it back that same old highway Even if we don’t end up side by side Good years, good love, good goodbye [Bridge] Ain’t a thing I’d trade For the way we grew You were my right road ‘Til mine changed its view If we pass someday At the county fair line I’ll tip my hat You’ll flash that smile [Chorus] ‘Cause we had good years, good fights, good stories Laugh-till-you-cry, say-you’re-sorry Two hearts learning how to try We had worn-out boots and a beat-up driveway I still bless every mile of that highway Even if we don’t end up side by side Good years, good love, good goodbye

country, Big 90s country ballad energy with male vocals, clean telecaster twang and warm acoustic strums over brushed snare and steady kick. Fiddle lines answer the vocal in the verses; chorus blooms with stacked harmonies and bright steel guitar fills. Dynamic lift into each hook, then a laid-back middle section that lets the storytelling land before a final, full-band singalong chorus.
