Porch Light Promises

Sittin' on this old porch swing, watchin' fireflies dance, Bottle in my hand, chasin' shadows of our last romance. You left with the summer wind, takin' my heart down that gravel road, Now the stars whisper your name, but the silence feels so cold.

Oh, these porch light promises, they fade like the evening glow, Whiskey burns the truth, but it don't ease this lonesome show. We danced in the moonlight, swore we'd never say goodbye, But love's a ramblin' train, leavin' me high and dry.

Mama always said, 'Son, hold on to what you got,' But you slipped through my fingers like rain on a hot tin roof. Now the town's talkin' 'bout how I drink away the nights, Searchin' for your laughter in these neon barroom lights.

Oh, these porch light promises, they fade like the evening glow, Whiskey burns the truth, but it don't ease this lonesome show. We danced in the moonlight, swore we'd never say goodbye, But love's a ramblin' train, leavin' me high and dry.

Maybe one day I'll find my way, past this heartache and regret, Pick up my boots and wander, but I'll never forget. Your smile in the dawn light, the way you called my name, In this small-town story, nothin' stays the same.

Oh, these porch light promises, they fade like the evening glow, Whiskey burns the truth, but it don't ease this lonesome show. We danced in the moonlight, swore we'd never say goodbye, But love's a ramblin' train, leavin' me high and dry.

Sittin' on this old porch swing, fireflies dancin' slow, Whiskey and memories, that's all I got to show.
