Sitting on the tailgate watching gravel spin
You reach out slow and tuck my hair back in
Just one quiet look from across the front seat
And every single heartbeat skips a little beat
(mm-mm) I never believed
in a sure-fire sign
Till your steady gaze
caught up with mine
Oh, those blue eyes,
clear as summer sky
Still give me butterflies
every single time
You're the quiet porch light
at the end of the day
The place where my wandering heart
wants to stay I'll take your hand,
let the gray hair come in I'd choose you forever all over
again
We talked about a porch with a wooden swing
Down the gravel road where the robins sing
You laugh real soft,
pull me close to your side
Suddenly tomorrow feels so safe and wide
I don't need the world
when I've got your arm
Keeping me steady
and keeping me warm (yeah)
Oh, those blue eyes,
clear as summer sky
Still give me butterflies
every single time
You're the quiet porch light
at the end of the day
The place where my wandering heart
wants to stay I'll take your hand,
let the gray hair come in I'd choose you
forever all over again
Someday when the rocker squeaks on the floor
And our kitchen steps don't shine anymore
I'll look across the table and smile right back
At the sweetest true love a girl could have
Oh, those blue eyes,
clear as summer sky
Still give me butterflies
every single time
You're the quiet porch light
at the end of the day
The place where my wandering heart
wants to stay Put a ring on my finger,
let the years roll on In the warmth of your eyes,
I am finally
home
(finally home)
Those blue
eyes...
Forever and always.
