Rydell’s just a boy with big dreams in his eyes, His mama Shelly’s the reason he’ll reach for the skies. Granny B’s got stories of the old country roads, She says, "Boy, you better take it slow." Pre-Chorus: But then Haddi Gambill came into his life, With a smile so bright, she became his wife. They’re a family built on love and pride, Through the highs and lows, side by side. Chorus: Rydell and Haddi, and Mama Shelly too, Granny B’s wisdom in everything they do. They’re the heart of a small town, the roots so deep, Together they’ll stand, and together they’ll keep The love that’s passed down from hand to hand, From Granny B’s kitchen to Rydell’s land. Verse 2: Mama Shelly’s got the strength of the whole world in her touch, Rydell’s a man now, but he’ll never forget so much. Granny B says, “Don’t rush, take your time, The love you find will be worth every climb.” Pre-Chorus: Haddi Gambill, with her gentle heart, She’s been the one from the very start. Rydell’s lucky, that much is true, But his mama and granny, they raised him too. Chorus: Rydell and Haddi, and Mama Shelly too, Granny B’s wisdom in everything they do. They’re the heart of a small town, the roots so deep, Together they’ll stand, and together they’ll keep The love that’s passed down from hand to hand, From Granny B’s kitchen to Rydell’s land. Bridge: From the first steps in the dirt to the wedding vows they made, They’ve walked through the seasons, never afraid. With Mama Shelly’s strength and Granny B’s grace, Rydell and Haddi, they’ve found their place. Chorus (Repeat): Rydell and Haddi, and Mama Shelly too, Granny B’s wisdom in everything they do. They’re the heart of a small town, the roots so deep, Together they’ll stand, and together they’ll keep The love that’s passed down from hand to hand, From Granny B’s kitchen to Rydell’s land. Outro: Yeah, from Granny B’s kitchen to Rydell’s land, It’s a family bound by love, strong and grand.

I remember, trying not to stare, the night that I first met you You had me mesmerized And three weeks later, in the front porch light Taking forty-five minutes to kiss goodnight I hadn't told you yet But I thought I loved you then But you were my whole life You were my whole world I just can't believe the way I felt about you, girl Like the river left the sea Stronger than it's ever was We've come so far since that day And I thought I loved you then And I remember, thinking about when I first liked you You were super nice There were people around, but I didn't care I hugged and swung you through the air I thought I loved you then But you were my whole life You we're my whole world I just can't believe, the way I felt about you, girl Like a river left the sea Stronger than it's ever was We've come so far since that day And I thought I loved you then And I can just see your smile from miles away And I can just see you holding me every single day What I can't see is how I was ever gonna love you more But I a think that some more but you were my whole life and you were my whole world I just can't believe the way I felt about you, girl We'll look back someday, at this moment that we're in And I'll look at you and say I thought I loved you then And I thought I loved you then Sad, broken, depression, 50bpm, love, hate

Lyrics As I sit staring out the window at the snow Thinking about the past and the way things go I just talked to my husband he said he just towed in my brothers truck He had slid off the road just a little ways from home Tears start rolling down my face And my mind takes me back 2 years to my daddy in the driveway Telling me they found a mass on his brain and he’s headed into surgery He’d passed out a couple times ,but we didn’t want to tell you Then I flash back to now He’s ok but I didn’t want to tell you And you know why ,you get so upset when things go wrong It happens every time Chorus But what if it’s the last time What if I never see his face again I’ve thought before I’d have more time Just to wake up And see the clocks have all run down And there’s no way to turn them back So tell me How am I supposed to act Staring out at the snow I miss my son I haven’t seen him since the fight last Christmas Eve He said you left me like it was nothing and never looked back Blaming everybody but yourself And sorry aint ever going to be enough The Tears start rolling down my face My mind takes me back 20 years Holding him in my arms I hand him to the people I love most They it’s only for a little while Then I flash back to now Chorus It was never supposed to be the last time That I’d ever hold you as mine thought I’d have more time But the clocks have all run down And there’s no way to turn them back So how am I supposed to act Now that snows really coming down I try to figure out why I’m so afraid And I go back 25 years to my mama crying that she just wants to die She was sick in her mind and I’d heard it all before I couldn’t stand it anymore I say do you want me to get you the gun And then I walked out the door Why does she do this all the time I didn’t know it was the last time That I’d ever see her face I needed more time But the clocks had all run down no way to turn them back So How am I supposed to act
(Verse 1) Blue jeans, boots, and a heart of gold Thought our love story was already told Then whispers flew, a secret revealed Strawberry Shortcake, how could he have concealed? (Chorus) He messed up, yeah, he strayed a bit With a girl in glasses, ain't that a fit? But my love's a river, wide and deep Even though he stumbled, my heart I'll keep. (Verse 2) Reddish-blonde curls and a freckled nose She thought she could steal my handsome beau But a little bird sang, told me the truth Now Strawberry Shortcake's lost her youth (meaning her chance). (Chorus) He messed up, yeah, he strayed a bit With a girl in glasses, ain't that a fit? But my love's a river, wide and deep Even though he stumbled, my heart I'll keep. (Bridge) Little miss sunshine thought she'd won But my love's stronger than the mornin' sun He learned his lesson, now he's payin' the price Workin' hard to win back paradise. (Chorus) He messed up, yeah, he strayed a bit With a girl in glasses, ain't that a fit? But my love's a river, wide and deep Even though he stumbled, my heart I'll keep. (Outro) Love's a journey, bumpy and long But with him by my side, I'm singin' my song Strawberry Shortcake, you can go on home This love's a wildfire, ain't never gonna roam!

His Part: So.. what's your story? When we connected, I saw we had a lot of mutuals, especially people I'm quite close with.. but I don't think we've crossed paths yet - somehow Her Part: What makes you think there’s a story? Because there’s absolutely none His Part: Hahaha I'm sure there must be.. your Instagram feed looks wildly interesting and you appeared out of nowhere Let's start with that.. when did you move back? Where were you? Her Part: Wildly interesting? Never heard that one before. And bold of you to assume you know everyone over here I only lived away for university really. I’m born and raised here, but it was still a transition moving back His Part: Bold assumptions, loud assertions, and defiant declarations of intent are sort of my m.o. Totally understand that trajectory.. what did you do in uni? Her Part: You’d think being wrong in one would cap it but clearly not.. My undergrad is in biochemistry. His Part: What can I say.. I am not a smart man And little did I know from that moment on, I would fall madly, insanely, head over heals in love with you. This was the beginning of our little love story. Little did I know our worlds would change, Little did I know we would be best friends, little did I know that you are how my story ends
