Verse 1
Life has a funny way of crossing some lines
Bringing good people together at the right time
Through a few old friends and a twist of fate
We found something real that was meant to stay
Didn’t take long before the music played loud
Every song we loved filling up the whole house
Pre-Chorus
Funny how a few good souls
Turn a moment into something you hold
⸻
Chorus
It’s the friends you keep when the night runs long
When the drinks get poured and the music comes on
Wooden spoons on the table keeping time to the beat
While we sing every word to the songs we keep
From the northern cabin lights to Mexico sand
Fishing lines dancing in the wind off the land
Turns out this life ain’t about what you own
It’s the friends you keep that make a place feel like home
⸻
Verse 2
Whitney on the speakers, somebody shouts the line
“I wanna dance with somebody,” and we’re right on time
90s country filling up the room
Early 2000s hip hop shaking the room
Pre-Chorus
We don’t care if the neighbors hear
Those nights are the ones we live for all year
⸻
Chorus
It’s the friends you keep when the night runs long
When the drinks get poured and the music comes on
Wooden spoons on the table keeping time to the beat
While we sing every word to the songs we keep
From the northern cabin lights to Mexico sand
Fishing lines dancing in the wind off the land
Turns out this life ain’t about what you own
It’s the friends you keep that make a place feel like home
⸻
Bridge
Somewhere between the laughter and midnight skies
We sang our way through the lows and the highs
Just a table, a speaker, and a couple old spoons
Making memories underneath the moon
⸻
Final Chorus
Yeah it’s the friends you keep when the world gets loud
When the music plays and you sing it proud
Wooden spoons on the table, voices in the night
Every song turning wrong into right
From Sunday fun days to starry skies
Through every road and every sunrise
Turns out this life ain’t about what you own
It’s the friends you keep that make a place feel like home
