Stories Left to Tell

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes a heart gets tired and worn From years of weather, years of storm One foolish word can crack the ground Where twenty-four years of roots were found But underneath the dust and doubt Love's still breathing, trying to get out [Chorus] So don't let go of what we've built Through every joy and every guilt I know I broke what should've held But Kate, this love has stories left to tell Give me the years we haven't found I swear I'll never let you down [Verse 2] I was the fool who couldn't see That truth's the only currency A simple lie, a heavy cost But Kate, we're not a love that's lost Forty-eight candles bright I'm asking for one more chance tonight [Chorus] So don't let go of what we've built Through every joy and every guilt I know I broke what should've held But Kate, this love has stories left to tell Give me the years we haven't found I swear I'll never let you down [Bridge] I don't need you to forget I just need you to believe That the man standing before you now Is never gonna leave [Verse 3] I see us rocking on that porch Gray-haired and laughing, holding torches For a love that almost died But found its way back from the other side Every birthday still to come I'll earn your trust with every one [Chorus] So don't let go of what we've built Through every joy and every guilt I know I broke what should've held But Kate, this love has stories left to tell Give me the years we haven't found I swear I'll never let you down [Outro] Happy birthday to my world Kate, you're still my only girl
