Bones

Chestnut hair and steel blue eyes

A light-up-the-room kinda smile

It was more than, "When you know, you know"

Yeah, girl, I felt it in my bones

I asked your name, we talked all night

I blinked and two years flew right by

Down on one knee, praying you won't say, "No"

Yeah, shaking right down to my bones

Saying, "I'll love ya till the stars above you

Ain't shining in the sky no more"

Long as I'm livin', baby, I ain't quittin'

That's a love you can bet your life on

Yeah, I'll love ya till I'm six feet down in the ground

And the gold on my finger's wrapped around

Nothin' but bones

There's some things I'll never understand

How's an angel wind up with just a man?

You're a halo and a heart of gold

Yeah, baby, I'm just flesh and bones

Saying, "I'll love ya till the stars above you

Ain't shining in the sky no more"

Long as I'm livin', baby, I ain't quittin'

That's a love you can bet your life on

Yeah, I'll love ya till I'm six feet down in the ground

And the gold on my finger's wrapped around

Nothin' but bones

Whoa

Yeah, forever and ever, for worse or for better

Till the good Lord calls me home

Long as I'm breathing, you'll be all I'm needing

Baby, carve it in my headstone

I'll love ya till I'm six feet down in the ground

And the gold on my finger's wrapped around

Nothin' but bones

Yeah, nothin' but bones
