I still got the sand from the beach in my boots
I still got the taste of the wine and the truth
When you pulled me in close in the fading light
I knew I was yours for the rest of the night
The highway is quiet and the moon is a ghost
But I'm driving back to the one I need most
I remember the touch of your hand on my skin
A slow-burning fire that I want to begin
So leave the porch light shining through the dark
I'm following the compass of my lonely heart
I can hear you breathing in the midnight air
I'll be pulling up soon, I'm almost there
Cause there's sand in my boots and you on my mind
A sweet southern memory I'm trying to find
I'm craving the sugar of your velvet lips
The sway of your body, the hold of your hips
Oh, the hold of your hips
Pull me closer
The radio is playing a low acoustic tune
I'm chasing down shadows beneath the pale moon
Your coffeehouse perfume is caught on my coat
And I'm memorizing every word that you wrote
So leave the porch light shining through the dark
I'm following the compass of my lonely heart
I can feel the chemistry that we both share
I'll be pulling up soon, I'm almost there
Cause there's sand in my boots and you on my mind
A sweet southern memory I'm trying to find
I'm craving the sugar of your velvet lips
The sway of your body, the hold of your hips
Oh, the hold of your hips
Pull me closer
There's sand in my boots and you're calling me home
I'm tired of wandering and sleeping alone
The shadows are dancing right into the dawn
Say my name softly, Sayed tonight
Sayed...
Let all of our secrets be completely drawn
Sayed...
And stay in my arms till the darkness is gone
I've crossed a hundred miles just to feel your heartbeat against mine.
So don't say a word, just let the night take over.
Cause there's sand in my boots and you on my mind
The sweetest of memories I've traveled to find
I'm craving the sugar of your velvet lips
The sway of your body, the hold of your hips
I still got the taste of the wine and the truth
When you pulled me in close in the fading light
I knew I was yours for the rest of the night
The highway is quiet and the moon is a ghost
But I'm driving back to the one I need most
I remember the touch of your hand on my skin
A slow-burning fire that I want to begin
So leave the porch light shining through the dark
