In the West Virginia mountains, we were just kids
Where the days were long and the dreams felt big
We were just friends then, but something began
Like the start of a story only God could have planned
I saw the warmth you kept tucked deep inside
Talked about Jesus and reaching for the skies
Every word drew me in, I finally felt seen
Didn’t know yet, you’d be the man of my dreams
Now I’m safe in your arms, it’s where I belong
Every day with you feels like my favorite song
When you walk out the door, I can’t wait ‘til you’re back
I count down the moments ‘til you’re here at last
I’m grateful for all of this life that we’ve grown
Nathaniel, my love, my heart, you’re my home
We chased the horizon on a two-day whim
Packed up the tent and the baby, just dove right in
Crossed over the Rockies, stopped at a Utah fruit stand
Thought the Grand Canyon wasn’t quite that grand
Went down roads our car was not built to drive
Saw a rock spire that had us laughing till we cried
That trip lit a fire we still carry on
Now we go where we dream, and we make it our own
We’ve walked through rainforests, sailed under the moon
Seen glowing bays and the redwood blooms
From the Narrows in Zion to Kodachrome’s open view
Every mile feels sweeter walking next to you
Chorus
Now I’m safe in your arms, it’s where I belong
Every day with you feels like my favorite song
When you walk out the door, I can’t wait ‘til you’re back
I count down the moments ‘til you’re here at last
I’m grateful for all of this love that we’ve known
Nathaniel, my love, my heart, you’re my home
Bridge
From the wild western nights to our own backyard fires
Swinging in hammocks, talking for hours
We’ve got dreams for the miles we haven’t yet seen
With you, the whole world feels like home to me
I’m safe in your arms, it’s where I belong
Every day with you feels like my favorite song
When you walk out the door, I can’t wait ‘til you’re back
I count down the moments ‘til you’re here at last
I’m thankful to God for the life that we’ve known
Nathaniel, my love, my heart, you’re my home
My favorite person that I’ve ever known
