Lyrics


Mmm… oh oh oh…

Mmm… yeah

Tommy was a boy about twenty-two
Didn’t have a job and he didn’t want to
Started fixing cars to see how fast they’d go
And he raced ‘em all over town

Jessie was a girl just nineteen
Barrel-racing beauty, the rodeo queen
Started dating girls ‘cause the boys were mean
But she still dreamed of Mister Right

One day they crossed paths, didn’t take too long
To find their love was strong
Tommy held her close, kissed her all night long
Treated her just like a queen

Jessie loved the saddle and the rodeo lights
But she traded in the barrel races for the nights
With Tommy by her side, everything felt right
Like a song she was meant to sing

They keep on running, chasing what they missed
A fleeting moment, sealed with a kiss
But love still lingers, it carries them through
A spark in the dark, and it feels so true… mmmm

They dreamed of the places they wanted to see
Tommy loved the road, Jessie longed to be free
Every plan they made just fell through the cracks
Trying to build a future just kept on holding them back

They spoke of their dreams and the roads they’d choose
Of love they had found and the love they could lose
Both chasing tomorrows that never aligned
Two drifting hearts, never on time

Then the truth came shining, like the morning sun
Through the highs and the lows, they were still as one
Not the lives they dreamed, but the road they chose
Found a connection where true love grows

They keep on running, chasing what they missed
A fleeting moment, sealed with a kiss
But love still lingers, it carries them through
A spark in the dark, and it feels so true… mmmm

Tommy loved Jessie and she loved him back
Through the twists of the road and the weight of the past
They held on tighter when the nights got long
Two weary souls made steady and strong

They carried each other through the darkest nights
Shared every burden, fought every fight
No road too rough, no hill too steep
Their love was a promise they aimed to keep

Now Jessie rides the barrels, chasing speed and fame
Tommy builds his engines, racing just the same
Two different worlds but their hearts agree
Love finds its rhythm in harmony

Love finds a way, on a long dark road
They found each other, so the story goes
They’re still together through the hardest times
Ain’t love funny sometimes…
