Lyrics
Verse 1:
Backpacked through Europe, our laughs caught in the breeze
Berlin’s beach bars, the freedom, the ease
Once thought there was more, as stars lit our way
But lessons come hard, and some words betray
Pre-Chorus:
Promises whispered softly, taken to heart
Reality showed its face, as we drifted apart
Chorus:
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
But I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, learning to embrace the new
Verse 2:
On cobblestone streets, we shared dreams, under neon glow
But then you turned, leaving me solo
With her by the shore, under our shared stars
I learned to find my own light, amid my scars
Pre-Chorus:
Words like drifting leaves, scattered and lost
I’ve found my path, no matter the cost
Chorus:
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, I’m learning to embrace the new
Verse 2:
On cobblestone streets, we shared dreams, under neon glow
But then you turned, leaving me solo
With her by the shore, under our shared stars
I learned to find my own light, amid my scars
Pre-Chorus:
Words like drifting leaves, scattered and lost
I’ve found my path, no matter the cost
Chorus:
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, I’m learning to embrace the new
(Chorus)
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, I’m learning to embrace the new
Bridge:
You reached out from shadows, anger thinly veiled
But the miles have taught me, from this ship I've sailed
Journeys end in lovers meeting, or so they say
I’m finding new beginnings, as I drive away
Chorus:
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, I’m learning to embrace the new
Chorus:
I thought you were a summer song, playing sweet and true
I've got a lot of time today, without you
Things ain't going my way, don’t know what to do
On this road to Nashville, I’m learning to embrace the new
Outro:
Driving cross-country, each mile a new song
Nashville's horizon, where I might belong
Memories fading in the rear-view, a story that’s told
I’m driving toward a future, bright and bold
