Built From the Dust

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A song playing soft on a late-night screen A stranger clicked through to a melody What started with playlists turned into hours Talking and laughing like the world was ours Two voices finding where they both belong [Chorus] Here's to the love that we built from the dust Two broken souls learning how to trust Through every storm and every golden day Jay, I would choose you the very same way I'd leave it all behind again for us [Verse 2] I loaded the truck under Kansas skies You flew on down to ride it back with me Side by side on the road to something new Every mile I knew that I'd found you Michigan bound, two hearts and one design [Chorus] Here's to the love that we built from the dust Two broken souls learning how to trust Through every storm and every golden day Jay, I would choose you the very same way I'd leave it all behind again for us [Bridge] Joy and grief came knocking at our door But nothing broke what we were fighting for We held on tight when the ground gave way And love became the place we chose to stay [Verse 3] Now every year another candle glows A testament to how our garden grows You were the one I trusted from the start The missing piece that filled my restless heart Happy birthday to the man who gave me home [Chorus] Here's to the love that we built from the dust Two broken souls learning how to trust Through every storm and every golden day Jay, I would choose you the very same way I'd leave it all behind again for us [Outro] So blow out the candles, make a wish tonight Jay, my love, our best is still in sight
