Love was a game I played dealer's choice In the back of a bar all summer Forgettin' names like background noise In relationships, I wanted none of
Went off the rails by fall Lord knows I needed savin' Wore off the alcohol And you were there like an angel waitin'
I didn't know you'd have brown eyes Like to pray to Jesus spendin' Friday nights at home Didn't know you'd be the strong kind Deeper than a coal mine lovin' with a heart of gold
And you're everythin' that I'm not, everythin' that I want There's a God, n' baby you're proof In those brown eyes, I know that I got to find A better me for you
Made a livin' dippin' toes in the water Feelin' low with my walls up high I was stayin' far away from the deep end A girl like you made a boy like me try
Went off the rails that fall Lord knows I needed savin' Made me forget them all
And I didn't know you'd have brown eyes Like to pray to Jesus spendin' Friday nights at home Didn't know you'd be the strong kind Deeper than a coal mine lovin' with a heart of gold
And you're everythin' that I'm not, everythin' that I want There's a God, n' baby you're proof In those brown eyes, I know that I got to find A better me for you (oh) A better me for you (oh)
Don't worry about the miles that it takes We can make every one of them worth all the drivin' I'll sin' your praises every way like the hymnals all say I could love you 'til the end of time and
I never knew you'd have brown eyes Liked to pray to Jesus, spendin' Friday nights at home Never knew you'd be the strong kind Deeper than a coal mine, lovin' with heart of gold
And you're everythin' that I'm not, everythin' that I want There's a God, n' baby you're proof In those brown eyes, I know that I got to find A better me for you A better me for you (oh) A better me for you A better me for you
