Track Insight / Lyrics
Porch swing creaks in evening's embrace
As I sit and watch the sun's descent
Worn wooden porch boards worn smooth by years
Of hands that held and tears that dried
Under worn out rocker where grandpa used to sit
With his whiskey and his worn, faded postcard
A piece of someone's past, lost in the swap
Between love letters and bills overdue
Her beautiful hand, the words she wrote
There, in that moment, she felt brand new
In your handwriting, my heart takes flight
A love letter, weathered from my life
Faded postcard, carried by the breeze
My home, my heart, where you used to be
The bayou's shadows dance upon the wall
As night descends and stories unfold
Of lovers' whispers, and the laughter of a summer ball
These cypress knees, our secrets they hold
A piece of someone's past, lost in the swap
Between love letters and bills due
Her beautiful hand, the words she wrote
There, in that moment, she felt brand new
In your handwriting, my heart takes flight
A love letter, weathered from my life
Faded postcard, carried by the breeze
My home, my heart, where you used to be
The stars appear as night takes hold
Their twinkling light, a story to be told
Of us, of then, of a love so bold
A memory kept, forever to be sold
In your handwriting, my heart takes flight
A love letter, weathered from my life
Faded postcard, carried by the breeze
My home, my heart, where you used to be
The porch is empty, now, in twilight's hush
But in this worn card, our love will rush
Through every crease, in every stain
Our forever, held within this faded postcard again
