John Martinez

[Verse 1]
Same old streets and porch lights glowing
Same corner store where we would run
We never knew where life was going
Six degrees apart beneath one sun
Then I saw you in Army green
A friend I didn't know I'd need

[Chorus]
You lift me up when I am falling
You hear the things I never say
Two peas in a pod, still holding on
Through every night and every day
Every mile was leading me
Home to you, my family

[Verse 2]
We traded boots for a front porch swing
Eight little voices, a house full of everything
John Martinez, you lean in close
And listen with that steady heart
Everyone who needs it most
Feels heard right from the start

[Chorus]
You lift me up when I am falling
You hear the things I never say
Two peas in a pod, still holding on
Through every night and every day
Every mile was leading me
Home to you, my family

[Bridge]
The world gets loud, you make it quiet
You hear the hurt behind a smile
The scars we carried home in uniform
Grew softer, mended, mile by mile

[Verse 3]
Now there's grandbabies on your knee
Giggling at the tales you tell
Another year, another anniversary
And I'm still falling, still under your spell
Warmth and laughter, light ahead
A lifetime more with you, my friend

[Chorus]
You lift me up when I am falling
You hear the things I never say
Two peas in a pod, still holding on
Through every night and every day
Every mile was leading me
Home to you, John, my family

[Outro]
From that same old street to forever
Two peas in a pod, me and you
John Martinez, my love so true
Forever I'll come home to you
