Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Dust on my boots Coffee in a chipped blue cup Dad’s old Ford Still hates the way it starts up Mailbox leans Like it’s had a long hard year But this front step Still fits us sittin’ here [Chorus] There’s a porch light on the highway Callin’ me back home Through the rain and the heartbreak Through every mile I’ve roamed When the night gets dark and heavy And I feel too far gone I just picture that yellow glow And I keep drivin’ on With that porch light on [Verse 2] Left this town Chasin’ songs and crooked dreams Neon signs Didn’t shine like I believed Phone calls short Guess I broke a tender trust But your goodnight prayers Still somehow covered us [Chorus] There’s a porch light on the highway Callin’ me back home Through the rain and the heartbreak Through every mile I’ve roamed When the night gets dark and heavy And I feel too far gone I just picture that yellow glow And I keep drivin’ on With that porch light on [Bridge] Maybe grace Looks a lot like old screen doors (yeah) Squeakin’ wide Sayin’ “son You’re yours and more” I ain’t fixed But I’m learnin’ where I belong In the creak of these steps And the roots in this red dirt yard [Chorus] There’s a porch light on the highway Callin’ me back home Through the rain and the heartbreak Through every mile I’ve roamed When the night gets dark and heavy And I feel too far gone I just follow that gentle glow ’Til the lost part of me is gone With that porch light on
