Broken Porch Heart

Lyrics

Verse 1
You wore that sweet-talk grin
Like a Sunday suit
Then slipped out the back door
With another excuse

I seen your phone face down
Your alibi thin
Left me holdin' the pieces
You walked right in

Pre-Chorus
Now I sit with the hurt
And I try to be strong
But you took good love
And you dragged it along

Chorus
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark
Broken porch heart
Now I know who you are
I wanted pure love
You wanted half a spark
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark

Verse 2
I ain't sayin' all love
Is a wound in disguise
But some folks take a good man
And cut him down to size

Then they ask why he’s distant
Why he drinks so slow
Why his smile gets smaller
Every place he goes

Pre-Chorus
It ain't hard to see
When the truth comes through
A man can lose his whole world
Chasin' after you

Chorus
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark
Broken porch heart
Now I know who you are
I wanted pure love
You wanted half a spark
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark

Bridge
Maybe one day
I’ll trust again
But tonight I’m just a man
With a cracked-out pen

I’ll mend these boards
I’ll clear this yard
But you can't call it love
If you leave that scar

Final Chorus
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark
Broken porch heart
Now I know who you are
I wanted pure love
You wanted half a spark
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark
Broken porch heart
You left me in the dark
