QUOTE:
Every line in your face
Is a road you've been down
It's a freight train you hopped
It's a night in a strange town
It's a joke that you've told
It's a tear that rolled on
A sad story you've heard
Or a lover who's gone
And the scars on your hands
It's the hard work that you've done
It's the skin that you've touched
Or the wars that you've won
It's the baby you cradled
It's the letter you wrote
It's the time you held on
It's the time you let go
And the footprints you leave
Are perfect and deep
And your soul is a place that is tough
But is sweet
And the shadow you cast
Is straight and is true
But the lines and the scars
Are what I love about you.
And the rust in your voice
It's the dust and the rain
It's the choices defended again and again and again
It's the life that you led
It's the friends come and gone
It's the highways and truck stops
And the cold still dawn
And the footprints you leave
Are perfect and deep
And your soul is a place that is tough
But is sweet
And the shadow you cast
Is straight and is true
But the lines and the scars and the rust
Is what I love about you.
