I was born to a family of jokers, gamblers and smokers, living on the line.
I was raised by strong headed women, men who tested limits and did a little time.
And it ain't a mystery you fell for me, we're just two lost souls trying to find our peace.
Love like ours ain't a masterpiece, it's a good day in the sun.
I was born to love you, out where the water is wide.
Make me your country bride, you'll be my prince of tides.
You were born to heal me, under a velvet sky.
Cat tails dancing in the light.
We were born to live a long and happy life.
A happy life.
Yeah folks, like us, we may lie down in darkness.
But we don't lose our sparks, we bring back a good story to tell.
Cause we grew up around beauty, sunsets better than a movie.
We knew it was our appointed duty to love like the world might end.
And to toast to good nights with friends.
I was born to love you, out where the water is wide.
Make me your country bride, you'll be my prince of tides.
You were born to heal me, under a velvet sky.
Cat tails dancing in the light.
We were born to live a long and happy life.
A happy life.
A happy life.
A happy life.
And it comes to me in waves, like the shores of Palmetto Bay.
Knowing I'm so lucky, your broken heart could love me.
I was born to love you, out where the water is wide.
Make me your country bride, you'll be my prince of tides.
You were born to heal me, under a velvet sky.
Cat tails dancing in the light.
We were born to live a long and happy life.
A happy life.
A happy life.
A happy life.
A happy life.
