I ain't just a city boy, chasing neon lights and noise I've been thinking about a piece of land where the grass is green and the air is grand
Got this picture in my mind of a porch swing sunset and sky Oh, I wanna raise some kids with you, build a life that's tried and true
We'll have a backyard full of laughter, kids running wild ever after Sunday mornings, pancakes on the stove Growing old together, never let go
I can see it now, you and me Living out our backyard dreams Settling down, starting a family Making memories just you and me
I wanna lay my roots right here Hold you close, keep you near In this little house we can call our own Backyard dreams, together we'll grow
I'll be your rock, you'll be my queen Living out our backyard dreams Settling down, starting a family Making memories just you and me
Let's plant some roses, watch them bloom Create a life with a simple tune Forget the fast lane, slow it down In our backyard, keep them, wear the crown
I can see it now, you and me Living out our backyard dreams Settling down, starting a family Making memories just you and me
In our little piece of paradise We'll build a love that's wild and wise Backyard dreams forevermore You and me, always and forevermore
