Back Road Memory Songtext

Back Road Memory Songtext
Look at this old dirt road
Kicked up dust where we used to go
Tire tracks by the creek′s edge
Swear I hear our laughs standing on that ledge
Every turn's got a story told
Summer nights when we felt so bold
Sneakin′ out past the barn's creak
Memories hit me like a flood this week
Time's a thief, it don′t stay
Slips through fingers, fades away
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can′t let go, it's still holdin′ on me
Drivin' through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky′s still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
There′s the bridge where we threw those stones
Skipped 'em flat 'til our parent′s called us home
Radio buzzed with our favorite tune
Under that oak in the light of the moon
Rusty gate by the field we′d run
Chasin' dreams ′til the mornin' sun
Swore we′d never grow up too fast
Now I'm wonderin′ where time has passed
Years roll on, they don't wait
Steal the spark from those old days
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can't let go, it′s still holdin′ on me
Drivin' through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky′s still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
Hard to say goodbye to those nights
Holdin′ on with all my might
Every moment's stuck in my mind
Can′t move on, I'm still behind
Now the road's just a faded line
But it pulls me back every time
Old truck′s gone, but I still see
You and me in that shotgun seat
Gravel crunched under worn-out tires
Hearts were young, full of wild desires
I close my eyes, and I′m right there
Summer breeze still tangles my hair
Life moves fast, it don't slow
But those days won′t let me go
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can't let go, it′s still holdin' on me
Drivin′ through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky's still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
Kicked up dust where we used to go
Tire tracks by the creek′s edge
Swear I hear our laughs standing on that ledge
Every turn's got a story told
Summer nights when we felt so bold
Sneakin′ out past the barn's creak
Memories hit me like a flood this week
Time's a thief, it don′t stay
Slips through fingers, fades away
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can′t let go, it's still holdin′ on me
Drivin' through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky′s still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
There′s the bridge where we threw those stones
Skipped 'em flat 'til our parent′s called us home
Radio buzzed with our favorite tune
Under that oak in the light of the moon
Rusty gate by the field we′d run
Chasin' dreams ′til the mornin' sun
Swore we′d never grow up too fast
Now I'm wonderin′ where time has passed
Years roll on, they don't wait
Steal the spark from those old days
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can't let go, it′s still holdin′ on me
Drivin' through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky′s still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
Hard to say goodbye to those nights
Holdin′ on with all my might
Every moment's stuck in my mind
Can′t move on, I'm still behind
Now the road's just a faded line
But it pulls me back every time
Old truck′s gone, but I still see
You and me in that shotgun seat
Gravel crunched under worn-out tires
Hearts were young, full of wild desires
I close my eyes, and I′m right there
Summer breeze still tangles my hair
Life moves fast, it don't slow
But those days won′t let me go
Every mile on that backroad calls me
Every bend where we carved our names
I can't let go, it′s still holdin' on me
Drivin′ through, feels just the same
Every star in that sky's still talking
Tells me who we were back then
I'm still lost in that backroad memory
Wish I could live it all again
