Lyrics

Blue-eyed beauty with a no-filter smile
Had a way of lighting up every mile
Sun hit different when you were around
Like the whole damn world just slowed right down
Funny how it started ain't much to say
Just a crooked mailbox on a gravel driveway
One small moment didn't seem like much
Turned into something I couldn't touch
You'd catch me staring laugh and ask me why
I'd just shake my head couldn't say what's on my mind
Cause I was looking in your eyes
Seeing years go rolling by
Little feet running through a yard somewhere
A wrap-around porch and a couple rocking chairs
Every dream I never knew I had
Started coming to life like that
Yeah I wasn't just looking I was gone
Somewhere deep in forever
Before the storm
You had a way of pulling me in close
Like you already knew me more than most
Every smile hit harder than the last
Made me believe something good could last
And I didn't say it but you had to know
Every time you laughed I let myself go
Falling faster than I'd ever planned
Didn't even try to understand
You'd catch me staring call me out again
I'd just smile back didn't let you in
Cause I was looking in your eyes
Seeing years go rolling by
Little feet running through a yard somewhere
A wrap-around porch and a couple rocking chairs
Every dream I never knew I had
Started coming to life like that
Yeah I wasn't just looking I was gone
Somewhere deep in forever
Before the storm
We didn't know what was coming down the road
Didn't see the cracks in what we'd hold
Back then love felt easy felt strong
Back before it all went wrong
Yeah I was looking in your eyes
Back when hope was still alive
Before the silence before the fall
Before we ever lost it all
Yeah every dream still felt like home
Every word still felt like gold
Yeah I wasn't just looking I was gone
Somewhere deep in forever
Before the storm
Yeah just a crooked mailbox
And everything we thought we'd be
