Red Letter Rearview Lyrics by Jonathan Hutcherson
I thought by now I’d be merry
Build a little farmhouse in my hometown
Where a couple big dreams got buried
I guess I didn’t trust that it all worked out
I dug my boots in Kentucky clay
Made it all harder than it had to be
Try to figure it out, put it all on me
Now I know for my good he works everything
Oh, all the letdowns doors that close
All the time my heart’s been broke
Looking back it all makes sense
When I’m looking in that red letter rearview
I can thank God for all that I’ve been through
My pieces fit together, life looks alive
Better in that old red letter rearview
It looks like all my unanswered prayers
Where you turn signs down a dead-end road
And me thinking that he never cared
Was really him turning gravel into gold
Oh, all the let down doors that close
All the time my heart’s been broke
Looking back it all makes sense
When I’m looking in that red letter rearview
I can thank God for all that I’ve been through
My pieces fit together, life looks alive
Better in that old red letter rearview
rearview
Oh, all the let down doors that close
All the time my heart’s been broke
Looking back it all makes sense
When I’m looking in that red letter rearview
I can thank God for all that I’ve been through
My pieces fit together, life looks alive
Better in that old red letter rearview
Yes it does
