Front Porch Lyrics

by Joy Williams

There are no wrong roads
And no window stays closed
Love is always sad when it fades
But glass is better stained anyway

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e119395-joy_williams~front_porch_lyrics.html ]
If never you find
What you're looking for
Come on back to the front porch
Say my name through the screened door
Come on back to the front porch
Whatever you done
It doesn't matter
Cause darlin' we're all a little splintered and battered
But the light is on, what you waiting for
Come on back come on back to the front porch

We carved a story in these boards
Watching life go back and forth
You take it all for granted then you leave
And then it takes awhile to realize what you need

If never you find
What you're looking for
Come on back to the front porch
Say my name through the screened door
Come on back to the front porch
Whatever you done
It doesn't matter
Cause darlin' we're all a little splintered and battered
But the light is on, what you waiting for
Come on back come on back

I took the long way looking for the short cut
To find out that this place was made of the best stuff

If never you find
What you're looking for
Come on back to the front porch
Say my name through the screened door
Come on back to the front porch
Whatever you done
It doesn't matter
Cause darlin' we're all a little splintered and battered
But the light is on, what you waiting for
Come on back come on back
Come on back come on back
To the front porch
