Romeo and Jasmine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He pulled up slow in a dusty Ford Jasmine stood there by the screen door Sun on her dress, moths on the porch She said, "Boy, you late, but I held on for more" [Verse 2] Romeo laughed with a shy-eyed grin Hands full of gravel, heart full of sin He said, "I been lost, but I'm back again" She shook her head like, "You always end up here, then" [Pre-Chorus] And the porch light glowed On her bare feet and his old coat One little touch And that whole town slowed [Chorus] Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Burning like a match in the dark Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Two wild hearts, one little spark He loves her fierce, she loves him true Ain't nothin' in this world they can't get through [Verse 3] Summer came hard with the rain in sheets Mud on the tires and salt on their cheeks They danced in the yard when the thunder rolled Laughing like they were ten years old [Pre-Chorus] And the porch light glowed On her bare feet and his old coat One little touch And that whole town slowed [Chorus] Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Burning like a match in the dark Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Two wild hearts, one little spark He loves her fierce, she loves him true Ain't nothin' in this world they can't get through [Bridge] If the county road bends If the money runs thin If the world gets loud They still come back again To that screen door To that front-porch light To the way she says his name When he pulls in at night [Chorus] Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Burning like a match in the dark Romeo and Jasmine (Romeo and Jasmine) Two wild hearts, one little spark He loves her fierce, she loves him true Ain't nothin' in this world they can't get through [Outro] Romeo and Jasmine Gonna stay that way Hand in hand Till the last sun fades
