[Verse 1]
I was runnin’ on empty, out of excuses
Dust on my boots, and miles on my pride
Kept leavin’ the towns that knew all my bruises
Chasin’ down nothin’ on the far-off side
[Chorus]
This broken road led me to you
Every wrong turn, every hard truth
All the dead ends, all the nights I almost gave up
Every crack in my map, every scar, every bruise
This broken road led me to you
[Verse 2]
There were barstool prayers and backseat confessions
Names I forgot and lines I rehearsed
Thought I was cursed with the weight of my lessons
Till your front porch light cut through the worst
[Chorus]
This broken road led me to you
Every wrong turn, every hard truth
All the dead ends, all the nights I almost gave up
Every crack in my map, every scar, every bruise
This broken road led me to you
[Bridge]
Maybe I needed to lose my way
To know your hand when you took mine (took mine)
Now every pothole and runaway day
Feels like it was part of the climb
[Chorus]
This broken road led me to you
Every wrong turn, every hard truth
All the dead ends, all the nights I almost gave up
Every crack in my map, every scar, every bruise
Yeah, this broken road led me to you
(led me to you, girl)
This broken road led me to you
