Russell Dickerson - Bones Lyrics

Chestnut hair and steel blue eyes
A light-up-the-room kinda smile
It was more than when you know, you know
Yeah, girl, I felt it in my bones
I asked your name, we talked all night
Blinked and two years flew right by
Down on one knee, prayin' you won't say no
Yeah, shaking right down to my bones

Saying, I'll love you 'til the stars above you
Ain't shining in the sky no more
Long as I'm livin', baby, I ain't quittin'
That's a love you can bet your life on
Yeah, I'll love you 'til I'm six feet down in the ground
And the gold on my finger's wrapped around nothin' but bones

There's some things I'll never understand
How's a angel wind up with just a man?
You're a halo and a heart of gold
Yeah, baby, I'm just flesh and bones

Saying, I'll love you till the stars above you
Ain't shining in the sky no more
Long as I'm livin', baby, I ain't quittin'
That's a love you can bet your life on
Yeah, I'll love you 'til I'm six feet down in the ground
And the gold on my finger's wrapped around nothin' but bones, whoa

Yeah, forever and ever, for worse or for better
'Til the good Lord calls me home
Long as I'm breathing, you'll be all I'm needing
Baby, carve it in my headstone
I'll love you 'til I'm six feet down in the ground
And the gold on my finger's wrapped around nothin' but bones
Yeah, nothin' but bones
