Deeper Is the Heart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Brendan clocks in where the Celina pipes run deep, Chew rolls beside him, all grit and little sleep. Jetting crew at dawn, blue coveralls and boots, Trading jokes over the roar, stealing glances between routes. [Pre-Chorus] Their hands brush once beside the service van, A whole forbidden world begins where no one understands. [Chorus] Brendan and Chew, they keep reaching through the night, Two hearts on opposite sides, still burning just as bright. Let the town talk, let the old rules fall away, They’ll choose each other, come what may. Brendan and Chew, no wall can make them part, The city’s deep below, but deeper is the heart. [Verse 2] At the diner after shift, they sit a booth apart, One paper cup between them, two hands guarding hearts. A cousin sees them laughing, carries rumors down the street, But Chew says, “When it’s you and me, the whole world feels complete.” [Pre-Chorus] They meet where work lights paint the water silver-gray, And promise when the morning comes, they won’t turn away. [Chorus] Brendan and Chew, they keep reaching through the night, Two hearts on opposite sides, still burning just as bright. Let the town talk, let the old rules fall away, They’ll choose each other, come what may. Brendan and Chew, no wall can make them part, The city’s deep below, but deeper is the heart. [Bridge] No family name, no rumor, no locked gate Can make a love like theirs arrive too late. They’ll take the road beyond the county line, Two brave hands joined, their future intertwined. [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Brendan and Chew, now walking side by side, No more borrowed minutes, no more need to hide. Let the town talk, let the old rules fall away, They’ll choose each other, come what may. Brendan and Chew, with the whole road to explore, The city’s deep below; their hearts are deeper more. [Outro] Brendan and Chew, together they begin, Two men, one promise, and a love that won’t give in.
