Where the Asphalt Stops Caleb Rivers 📜 LYRICS: [Verse 1] I can see the city lights crawling up the western lane Neon signs trying to wash away the rain The lawyers in suits keep knocking at my gate Offering millions for this old estate They want to pour concrete over memories and bone But they don’t understand what it means to have a home. [Chorus] Where the asphalt stops, my world begins With the rust on the fence and the Texas winds They can keep their towers and their crowded city streets I’ll keep the dirt beneath my cowboy boots' feet Yeah, the road turns to gravel right outside my door And I ain't trading this for nothing anymore. [Verse 2] My wife and I built this cabin log by log Down by the creek in the morning winter fog Every tree on this ridge has a story to tell And it’s a sacred piece of ground that I’ll never sell Let them call me stubborn, let them say I’m left behind But peace of mind is something that a dollar cannot find. [Chorus] Where the asphalt stops, my world begins With the rust on the fence and the Texas winds They can keep their towers and their crowded city streets I’ll keep the dirt beneath my cowboy boots' feet Yeah, the road turns to gravel right outside my door And I ain't trading this for nothing anymore. [Outro] Keep your concrete, boys... I'll keep my gravel road.
