A Thousand Miles of Country Road

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sixteen and a summer sky, A parking lot where carts rolled by, In a little Texas town, I never knew what I had found. Just a boy who pushed the line, Till your smile stopped this heart of mine. [Chorus] Oh Krystal, you're the reason I keep breathing, The rock beneath these restless feet, Through every mile and every season, You made this broken life complete. I'd cross a thousand miles of country road, Just to come home to you. [Verse 2] November when it all began, A January vow to be your man, Then Mason came and Ashton too, Two little boys who look like you. I worked away, those lonesome days, You held it all in a thousand ways. [Chorus] Oh Krystal, you're the reason I keep breathing, The rock beneath these restless feet, Through every mile and every season, You made this broken life complete. I'd cross a thousand miles of country road, Just to come home to you. [Bridge] When the storm took part of me away, You were the light that made me stay. You pulled me back from where I'd been, And taught my heart to hope again. [Verse 3] So we packed it up and headed west, Montana skies and mountain crest, Bought some land beneath the pines, Where four-wheels run and rivers wind. Hiking trails and casting lines, A brand new life, and you are mine. [Chorus] Oh Krystal, you're the reason I keep breathing, The rock beneath these restless feet, Through every mile and every season, You made this broken life complete. I'd cross a thousand miles of country road, Just to come home to you. [Outro] The finest woman I have known, My wife, my friend, my heart, my home.
