Fiddles By Firelight
by CJ Frei
Lyrics
Verse 1
Dust on my boots
Tailgate down
Main Street glowin'
On the edge of town
Shane brought a cooler
Mia brought pie
We parked by the field
And watched sparks rise
Pre-Chorus
Somebody said
Don't let it fade
So we turned it up
And made our own parade
Chorus
Fiddles by firelight
That was our night
Hand in the air
Laughin' till daylight
Fiddles by firelight
We sang it all right
Small-town hearts
Burnin' bright
Verse 2
Old Luke danced goofy
On his mama's grass
June wore boots
She could kick the dust fast
Jace played guitar
On a split-top bench
And every old story
Got a brand-new edge
Pre-Chorus
We knew right then
What the years might take
But not one good second
Would we let slip away
Chorus
Fiddles by firelight
That was our night
Hand in the air
Laughin' till daylight
Fiddles by firelight
We sang it all right
Small-town hearts
Burnin' bright
Bridge
Now some moved off
Some settled down
Some nights we still
Find our way back to town
Same old field
Same sweet sound
One spark can bring
A whole life round
Chorus
Fiddles by firelight
That was our night
Hand in the air
Laughin' till daylight
Fiddles by firelight
We sang it all right
Small-town hearts
Burnin' bright
Fiddles by firelight
Hold me tonight
Some things just stay
Right in sight
