[Verse 1]
Her hair smells the same
Lying there in bed
Way that it did years ago
When I hadn't said I loved her yet
My flannel shirt she wears at night
Smells vaguely of the cigarettes
We smoke out on the front porch
Some nights before I lay my head

[Chorus]
Oh, I ain't ever letting go
No siren's song could pull me away from my love
Oh, this house was built on stone
These roots go down to bedrock
Tie me close to my love

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I tell her
The things that I reckon
She laughs when I say things like, "I reckon"
Says it's small town
Squeezes my hand
Then smiles when she tells me
I sound just like my old man
[Verse 3]
Some nights she reads to me
A verse from e e cummings
The one about a woman and a car
She's my favorite line from that poem
And I'm her favorite cowboy song

[Chorus]
Oh, I ain't ever letting go
No siren's song can pull me away from my love
Oh, this house was built on stone
These roots go down to bedrock
Tie me close to my love

[Chorus]
Oh, I ain't ever letting go
No siren's song can pull me away from my love
Oh, this house was built on stone
These roots go down to bedrock
Tie me close to my own
