Love Notes and Long Roads

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Two kids sitting in science class Passing notes and hoping it would last Something steady in his eyes that day A kind of love that don't just fade away Sixteen years old, but somehow I just knew My whole world was about to start brand new [Chorus] Here's to you, George, my heart, my home Twenty-three years and still you're all I've known From teenage love to everything we've grown Here's to you, George, you're the best thing I've ever known [Verse 2] At seventeen we held our baby girl Two kids trying to figure out the world He dropped out so I could stay in school Worked three jobs, never once thought it was cruel He carried us before he'd carry doubt That's the kind of man I'm singing about [Chorus] Here's to you, George, my heart, my home Twenty-three years and still you're all I've known From teenage love to everything we've grown Here's to you, George, you're the best thing I've ever known [Bridge] Every mile out on that road at night Every moment missed to keep the lights on bright He gave it all so we could have it all And I'd catch him every time he'd fall [Verse 3] Two boys came and made our pack complete This little life we built is bittersweet We grew up side by side through every storm Learned that love ain't perfect, love is worn If I could go back to that very first day I'd choose him again, wouldn't change a thing, no way [Chorus] Here's to you, George, my heart, my home Twenty-three years and still you're all I've known From teenage love to everything we've grown Here's to you, George, you're the best thing I've ever known [Outro] Still that boy from science class to me Still the only one I'll ever need
