  • This ain't just a song to me
    Its a hymn I heard my grandma sing
    A lick I learned on bass guitar
    A drunk I met at some old bar
    A blink you missed at Tennessee
    This ain't just a song to me lyrics
    Its a windshield on a time machine
    A blue chavel a girl I kissed
    A love I lost a friend I missed
    That town I left at 23
    This ain't just a song to me

    And if I'm lucky
    In a movie
    Make you shout hell yeah or hallelujah
    And if it matters
    That you heard it
    All the love I poured into it will be worth it

    This ain't just a song to me
    Who knows what it might turn out to be
    All I have is for a lonely soul
    A road that takes a soldier home
    Or just a chance to tap your feet

    And if I'm lucky
    In a movie
    Make you shout hell yeah or hallelujah
    And if it matters
    That you heard it
    All the love I poured into it will be worth it

    Oh this ain't just a song to me
    Its as honest as ill ever be
    And one day when I'm dead and gone
    A part of me will carry on
    When someone hums this melody
    (This ain't just a song)
    It's a part of me that carries on
    (This ain't just a song to me)
    This ain't just a song to me
    (This ain't just a song to me)
    It's a part of me that carries on and on and on
    This ain't just a song Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
