I’ve kissed a few wrong goodbyes,
Believed forever in borrowed time.
Built my heart like a front porch swing,
Watched it break and watched it sing.
I’ve packed my dreams in cardboard boxes,
Started over more than once.
If love’s a highway, Lord knows I’ve
Taken every bumpy one.
Some folks find forever easy,
Mine’s been written slow.
But every chapter taught me
Something I needed to know.
I’m still saving a seat on the porch at sunset,
Still dreaming ‘bout a name I ain’t heard yet.
Still believing there’s a hand
That’s gonna fit just right in mine.
I’ve had almosts, maybes, and midnight goodbyes,
Broken promises and tear-filled nights.
But I ain’t giving up on forever
Just because I’ve had hard times.
My story ain’t over—
I’m still waiting on my person to arrive.
I’ve loved with everything inside me,
Sometimes more than I should’ve done.
Stayed too long, let go too late,
Still found a way to overcome.
Now I know love shouldn’t leave you
Questioning your worth each day.
Real love shows up and stays beside you,
It doesn’t slowly walk away.
Maybe somewhere he’s praying too,
Wondering if I’ll come along.
Maybe every wrong turn I’ve taken
Is leading me where I belong.
When we meet, I hope he sees
The woman behind every scar—
Not someone who’s been broken,
But someone who’s come this far.
I’ll keep saving a seat on the porch at sunset,
For the man who’ll love my whole life, not just the best.
He’ll know my past but hold my future,
He won’t run when things get hard.
Until that day, I’ll keep believing,
Keep healing, keep following my heart.
‘Cause every crazy love story
Can still end with the right one.
And I believe mine’s just about to start.
So here’s to wrong roads that brought me here…
To every tear that made me stronger…
And to the love I’ve been waiting for all along.
