Gold in the Dirt

from Falling In by Evan Knutila

lyrics

Looking for a place to build a home
Just a plot of land that we can call our own
Somewhere far away from the city sounds
There among the pines on the outskirts of town

I’m ready for a family
Let’s add another one to you and me
I see that spark in your blue eyes
And I see the rest of my life

I can see the gold in the dirt
I can feel our future on this little spot of earth
Like it’s the only place in the whole wide world
It’s almost as perfect as you, girl
You just can’t put a price on what the simple life is worth
Baby I can see the gold in the dirt

I grew up not far from here
I’ve seen a lot that don’t care compare
But I know I want my forever home
To be a castle at the end of that gravel road

I see a front yard rope swing
And camping by the river every spring
Be my queen, spend forever with me
‘Cause I want to be your king

Just a couple small town kids
Trying to make it on our own
I’ll be good as long as I am with
The girl and the gold at the end of that old red road
At the end of that old red road
