Meet me on the porch.We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
Let's search the hickory limbs
For baby raccoons tumbling over mama
And robins songs bathing in bushes nearby
While the moonlight crawls up the sky.
Rest your lemonade on the rocker
And silence the world's noise to
Coneflowers flowing in the breeze
And cars' dust shadowing the lane.
Meet me on the porch.We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
We make a wish list of dreams
From our hopes for tomorrow.
Talking too much, maybe not enough,
About the cares of yesterday.
Our slowed down rocking
Teases life to stop for a second.
We step off life's merry-go-round
To come sit quiet together, so
Meet me on the porch.
We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
The dim lights near the door
Beckon us to stay just a bit more.
The fans' whir keep us cool.
There's no place better to ask for.
When the words from our lips
No longer light the sky
And a few simple lullabies
Don't bring sweet dreams at night.
You should meet me on the porch.
We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
It's the long porch sitting
When we've lost what we were getting,
That heals the hurting heart
And braces us for a new start.
Pondering our words on the porch,
Staring at pillars for strength,
Sheltered from worries of the world
We come home once again, so
Meet me on the porch.
We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
It's a long porch, so take a sit
And listen to the muse of a friend.
There's chairs for a whole family
And even quite a few misfits.
We'll sing your heart a song,
And we'll tarry right along,
Maybe make some rights from wrongs
When we gather 'round the porch.
So, meet me on the porch.
We'll ponder our words,
Search our wondering hearts,
Linger longer together,
And slow this dizzy life.
