[Verse 1]
You pour coffee in that break room light
Call me "kid" and laugh like it's just polite
Same name patch
Same worn hat
We clock in
Clock out
Side by side
You lift boxes like it's still '95
I steal glances just to feel alive
You talk past
You talk plans
'Bout a life I've never tried
[Chorus]
I get lost in deer stand daydreams
Two blaze vests in the same cold tree
You point north
Say "that wind's right"
I just nod
Hiding how my heart flies
It's a hard kind of love
Quiet and tough
Too many years
Too many "what if" thoughts
But I can't help it
I can't help it
I'm in over my head for you
[Verse 2]
You back that truck like it's part of you
I ride shotgun
Boots up
Playing cool
You hum old songs
I mouth along
Wish my name was in your tune
Town keeps talking 'bout the age we ain't
Mama says
"baby
Hearts don't wait"
But my mind
Draws that line
My hands still shake when you say my name
[Chorus]
I get lost in deer stand daydreams
Two blaze vests in the same cold tree
You point north
Say "that wind's right"
I just nod
Hiding how my heart flies
It's a hard kind of love
Quiet and tough
Too many years
Too many "what if" thoughts
But I can't help it
I can't help it
I'm in over my head for you
[Bridge]
Are you just kind
Or are you kind of mine
Would you cross that line
Or keep it safe this time
I chase every word you say
All the way home
Wondering if I'm wrong
Or just alone
[Chorus]
I get lost in deer stand daydreams
Two blaze vests in the same cold tree
You say
"kid
You shoot first today"
And my whole world shakes
I can barely aim
It's a hard kind of love
Quiet and tough
Too many years
Too many "what if" thoughts
But I can't help it
I can't help it
Yeah
I can't help it
I can't help it (oh)
I'm in over my head for you
