Billy

[Verse 1]
Back in seventy-four we first crossed lines,
Two young dreamers, two different times.
You rode the dust, I chased a song,
The world kept pulling us along.
Then all those years just slipped away,
'Til fate came knockin' one bright day.

[Chorus]
And it was worth it, every mile,
Every heartache, every trial.
Faith held on when the road was steep,
Love's a promise we get to keep.
Through the storm we learned to stand,
Two hearts finally, hand in hand.

[Verse 2]
In 2017 you found me again,
No more strangers, no more when.
A cowboy's heart, a singer's tune,
Beneath the same old country moon.
It didn't matter where we'd been,
Billy, you let the light back in.

[Chorus]
And it was worth it, every mile,
Every heartache, every trial.
Faith held on when the road was steep,
Love's a promise we get to keep.
Through the storm we learned to stand,
Two hearts finally, hand in hand.

[Bridge]
It hurt to get here, Lord it did,
But courage carried what we hid.
Now every scar just tells me true —
There's no one I'd rather ride into.

[Verse 3]
So here we are, still holdin' on,
Two different worlds now one long song.
The years ahead are ours to write,
Beneath the stars, beside the light.
Billy, my cowboy, steady and strong,
This is right where I belong.

[Chorus]
And it was worth it, every mile,
Every heartache, every trial.
Faith held on when the road was steep,
Love's a promise we get to keep.
Through the storm we learned to stand,
Two hearts finally, hand in hand.

[Outro]
So take my hand and ride with me,
Billy, my love, my destiny.
