Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Bare feet on the railing
Same swing, same creak, same view
Glass sweating on the armrest
One for me, and one for you
We laugh about that busted Chevy
How we pushed it up that hill
You say you still miss Friday nights
At the bar down by the mill
[Chorus]
We’re just pickin’ guitars, pickin’ banjos
Letting that smoke chase the June sky slow
Sippin’ on whiskey while the fireflies wink
Talkin’ ‘bout the ones that slipped away too quick
Some regrets, some good days
Some names we don’t say
Some dreams in the clouds driftin’ out of our reach
But right now it’s you and me
Right here on this old porch swing
[Verse 2]
You stir the ice in your tumbler
Say you’d call her if you could
I trace my scars with my thumb
Say I’d change it if I would
We count the jobs we should’ve taken
And the roads we never drove
Then you point up at that fading sky
Say, “Man, we still got hope”
[Chorus]
We’re just pickin’ guitars, pickin’ banjos
Letting that smoke chase the June sky slow
Sippin’ on whiskey while the fireflies wink
Talkin’ ‘bout the ones that slipped away too quick
Some regrets, some good days
Some names we don’t say
Some dreams in the clouds driftin’ out of our reach
But right now it’s you and me
Right here on this old porch swing
[Bridge]
Maybe tomorrow we’ll chase one down
One wild idea we wrote in the margins
But tonight these jars of lightning bugs
Are brighter than our bargains (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
We’re just pickin’ guitars, pickin’ banjos
Letting that smoke chase the June sky slow
Sippin’ on whiskey while the fireflies wink
Talkin’ ‘bout the ones that slipped away too quick
Some regrets, some good days
Some prayers we still pray
Some dreams in the clouds that we still kinda believe
And right now it’s you and me
Right here where we’re meant to be
On this old porch swing
