[Verse 1]
Shotgun seat in late July
Windows down on that New Mexico drive
You were laughing at the wrong turn signs
Said
“Getting lost is how we find the time”
Map folded on your shaking knee
You played that song and sang off-key
Pulled over just to watch the sky
You said
“Take a picture with your mind”
[Chorus]
Toni
You’re my once-in-a-lifetime friend
From empty roads to crowded restaurants again
We’ve got stories that we’ll still be telling when we’re old
Toni
Every mile and memory that we keep
From silly jokes to talking ‘til we fall asleep
You’re the kind of love that makes the world feel like home
Toni
You’re my home
[Verse 2]
You light up when you say her name
Loving your daughter big
You don’t play games
I see your heart in every small sweet thing
Like saving every drawing
Every ring
Table for three at our favorite place
Fries in the middle
Ketchup on your face (hey!)
We plan the next trip on a paper napkin
Dreaming up the routes that we’ll get lost in
[Chorus]
Toni
You’re my once-in-a-lifetime friend
From empty roads to crowded restaurants again
We’ve got stories that we’ll still be telling when we’re old
Toni
Every mile and memory that we keep
From silly jokes to talking ‘til we fall asleep
You’re the kind of love that makes the world feel like home
Toni
You’re my home
[Bridge]
So here’s to every long drive
Every late-night talk
Every shared dessert
Every sidewalk walk
If I could choose my family
I’d just point at you (oh yeah)
Because you turned my ordinary
Into something true
[Chorus]
Toni
You’re my once-in-a-lifetime friend
From empty roads to crowded restaurants again
We’ve got stories that we’ll still be telling when we’re old
Toni
Every mile and memory that we keep
From silly jokes to talking ‘til we fall asleep
You’re the kind of love that makes the world feel like home
Toni
You’re my home (my home)
Toni
You’re my home
