Lyrics

Verse 1

Got a glass half goneOn a dented table edgeI was countin' old mistakesIn the glow of the porch light ledgeCould've turned that truck aroundCould've said what I should've saidBut I sat there with the burnAnd let the good night go ahead

Pre‑Chorus

Now the room starts hummin'And your hand finds mineAll them could've-beensFall out of line

Chorus

Jameson and youJameson and youI might've changed a thing or twoBut I'd still end up here with youJameson and youJameson and youIf the whole damn road looks newThen maybe it was built for you

Verse 2

There's a scar on my left knuckleFrom a fence I should've leftThere's a name I don't say much'Cause it still sits heavy in my chestI used to chase the lost hoursLike they owed me something backNow I'm watchin' you laugh at meAnd I don't want my trouble back

Pre‑Chorus

Yeah, the room starts hummin'And your eyes go brightAll them crooked turnsFeel near right

Chorus

Jameson and youJameson and youI might've changed a thing or twoBut I'd still end up here with youJameson and youJameson and youIf the whole damn road looks newThen maybe it was built for you

Bridge

drop to voice and pedal steelIf I'd been smarterIf I'd been kinderMaybe I'd be someone elseBut I'd miss thisI'd miss your handI'd miss your kiss on my last bad day

Final Chorus

Jameson and youJameson and youI might've changed a thing or twoBut I'd still end up here with youJameson and youJameson and youLet the whole room sing it throughMaybe it was all just right with youJameson and youJameson and you
