If Tomorrow Never Came | Emotional Appalachian Folk Ballad

Lyrics Verse 1 Someone painted over our names On the old white fence by Miller's Creek. The wood forgot the summer sun, But not the weight of you and me. The porch still answers every step With the same old tired complaint. Funny how a house can keep The things that people say they can't. Pre-Chorus I came back looking for a road. I found the dust instead. Chorus If tomorrow never came, Would this valley even know? Would the river change its course, Or keep carrying us below? Maybe time is just a fire That leaves the iron, takes the flame. Maybe nothing really leaves... If tomorrow never came. Verse 2 Your coffee cup is long gone now. The ring it left is still the same. Funny what survives the years— Not the hands, but where they stayed. The map we drew behind the barn Has nearly disappeared in moss. You can bury every footprint. You can't teach the earth to forget. Bridge So I won't ask Heaven for a sign. It already gave me one. The gate still falls before it shuts. The wind still skips the seventh rung. Every little crooked thing Still says exactly who we've been. Final Chorus If tomorrow never came, I would leave the porch light on. Not because I'm waiting still, But because some roads walk home. Let the mountains keep our echo. Let the river speak our names. If tomorrow never came... Maybe nothing really changed. Outro The first bird always sings Before the light arrives. ---------------------------------------------- Some songs are about love. Others are about the moments we don't realize are our last.
