Description
[Verse 1]
Porch light on, dirt road quiet, coffee on the counter steam,
Boots by the mat, small hands in mine — living our second dream.
From felon's steps to bedtime shoes, I swapped my midnight ways,
I tuck them in, kiss every brow, found my way home today.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every tear I paid for, every road I ran and lied,
Turned to lullabies on repeat when they closed their eyes.
Hope's a soft nightlight that never fades away,
And I hum that little line — I found my way home today.
[Chorus]
I traded shadows for their sunrise — found my way home today,
Two daughters, one son, bright as the morning, chasing clouds away.
Little prayers on the pillow, bedtime stories in my sway,
I traded my lies for lullabies — and I'm staying, here to stay.
[Verse 2]
Storytime by the nightlight, blanket pulled up to their chin,
Tiny shoes on the hallway, sleepy giggles draw me in.
From the steel and the sirens to tuck-ins and small waves,
From cold cell bars to counting stars, I found my way home today.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every wrong that shaped me, every hard and lonely blame,
Melted into lullaby lines when I learned to say their names.
The coffee's on the counter, the porch light shows the way,
I sing that little hook again — I found my way home today.
[Chorus — Variation]
I traded shadows for their sunrise — found my way home today,
Two daughters, one son, painting new dawns on Oklahoma plains.
Whispered promises at bedtime, a softer heart that won't stray,
I traded my lies for lullabies — and love taught me to stay.
[Bridge]
First night I tucked them in, my hands shook but I didn't run,
I laid down the old chain, turned in keys, watched a new day come.
Court days behind me, chain in a box on a shelf,
The milestone said I could try — for them I try myself.
I hum that little line like a vow that lights the gray:
I traded shadows for their sunrise — found my way home today.
[Chorus — Big]
I traded shadows for their sunrise — found my way home today,
Two daughters, one son, turning my dark into a softer play.
Porch light, dirt road, coffee warm — these small things lead the way,
I traded my lies for lullabies, and in their arms I’ll stay.
[Outro]
Nightlight hums, moon on the window, their breathing slow and safe,
Every heartbeat writes a sentence of the life I've rearranged.
I keep that little vocal line like a promise that won't fray:
I traded shadows for their sunrise — found my way home today.
(End motif: found my way home today.)
