Every Mile Mattered
Spread the map on the table, with the coffee stain Put your finger on the places, show me where you've been Is that California, where your teardrops dried? You drew a circle around Georgia, can you tell me why? I see shoulda beens, coulda beens Written all over your face Wrong turns and bridges burned Things you wanna change It's history You can't rewrite it You're not meant to be trapped inside it Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered Yeah, it's history And every mile mattered Mattered, mattered, mattered Mattered, mattered, mattered Get the box off the top shelf, with the black and white Snapshots of your old self, in a better light Ghosts and regrets back again, I can see it in your eyes Send them home, let 'em go Don't you think it's time? Yeah SongtexteIt's history You can't rewrite it You're not meant to be trapped inside it Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered It's history And every mile mattered And every road and every bend Every bruise and bitter end All you squandered, all you spent It mattered, it mattered Mercy always finds a way To wrap your blisters up in grace And every highway you'd erase It mattered, it mattered But it's history It don't define you You're free to leave It all behind you Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered It's history And every mile mattered!
