I walked a thousand backroads, boots worn thin with time
Chasin’ down a feelin’ I could never quite define
Every mile a question, every town the same
Just a lonely heart lookin’ for a name
I’ve danced with empty shadows, held what wouldn’t stay
Watched love slip like river water, driftin’ me away
Till one quiet evenin’, like a soft refrain
You walked in slow and eased my pain
Chorus
And it ain’t hard, no it ain’t hard at all
When the right one answers every call
Like a well-worn song I’ve always known
Now I ain’t walkin’ this road alone
All those years just fall apart
Turns out love’s the easy part
When you find the one your soul’s been dreamin’ of
It ain’t work, it’s just love
I used to think forever was a hill too steep to climb
Like buildin’ somethin’ fragile in a world that fights your time
But with your hand in mine, it all feels strong
Like we’ve been buildin’ this all along
We don’t need no grand plans, no castle in the sky
Just a porch, a swing, and your laugh by my side
Every day comes easy, every night feels right
Like the stars all showed up just to shine on us tonight
Chorus
And it ain’t hard, no it ain’t hard at all
When the right one answers every call
Like a well-worn song I’ve always known
Now I ain’t walkin’ this road alone
All those years just fall apart
Turns out love’s the easy part
When you find the one your soul’s been dreamin’ of
It ain’t work, it’s just love
Bridge
All that searchin’, all that pain
Was just leadin’ me your way
Now every road I’ve ever known
Feels like it was carved in stone
Final Chorus
And it ain’t hard, no it ain’t hard to see
You were always waitin’ here for me
Like a sweet, slow tune on a summer breeze
You brought my heart back to me
All those years just fade away
In the light of better days
When you find the one your soul’s been dreamin’ of
It ain’t work… it’s just love
