Verse 1
We raced the sunset, porch light on the sill,
Two boots on the step, heart beating to the drill.
You opened up a door I never meant to find,
Left our promises folded like a worn-out sign.
Pre-Chorus
Truck-bed maps and a paper napkin plan,
Jukebox laughter that used to know my hand.
I felt the shift — and the night pulled you loose,
But I won't stand here waiting for you to choose.
Chorus
Porch light's faded, I found my own spark,
You chased neon nights — I'm carving my mark.
You walked away — okay, I’ll be alright,
Dancing with the dawn, trading dark for light.
Verse 2
Friday night radio, your laugh in the air,
Accordion sighs and the smell of cheap coffee there.
Your jacket on the chair like a question left behind,
Every mile on the dash spelled the shape of your mind.
Pre-Chorus (tight)
Did you think I wouldn't see? Did you think you'd hide?
Did you count on silence to be on your side?
The porch light's low but my feet hit the floor —
I'm locking the door on the man I was before.
Chorus
Porch light's faded, I found my own spark,
You chased neon nights — I'm carving my mark.
You walked away — okay, I’ll be alright,
Dancing with the dawn, trading dark for light.
Bridge (Spoken — her words exactly)
basically he kinda stepped out with a couple women one in particular he let her in he showed feeling for her
he let her in
he didn’t think I would find out
or maybe he just didn’t care
be tested out vows
ruined our second chance at happiness
all we do is fight
I’m tired of crying being mad and sad
I miss when he saw and heard me
when I felt safe in his arms
when I knew I was who he wanted
before he let some one else turn his head
make him laugh and smile like I used to be able to do
I have no fight left but I have and always luv him no matter how things turn out forever he was and always. will be my forever
I just don’t know why I did to cause him to look away to betray our love our vows
(Spoken ends — cue pickup)
Breakup Line (call-and-response)
You: "You walked away."
Band/Harmony: "You walked away."
You: "I slammed the door."
Band/Harmony: "I slammed the door."
Chorus (final — big, harmonies)
Porch light's faded, I found my own spark,
You chased neon nights — I'm carving my mark.
You walked away — okay, I’ll be alright,
Dancing with the dawn, trading dark for light.
Tag / Outro
So keep your jukebox, keep your midnight show,
I'll keep this porch light for the woman I know.
Porch light's faded — watch me ignite,
I turned the page and found my morning light.
