[Verse 1] May the highways cross their fingers and hope That we may one day find ourselves home She sticks her head outside the passenger window Sighs as traffic stops and goes It’s been two weeks now living in this southern town We hoped the change would change our restless minds A little rewind to a simpler time I swear it’s temporary living in this cheap motel Somewhere in the bible belt We made love at that Marietta Motel 6 You fell asleep on my shoulder of commitment Took it as a sign everything would be fine Sometimes it takes these kind of nights just to realize How we want to spend the rest of our lives Chorus] Could a diamond in the rough ever be enough I’ve been mining for your love Since the day that we met I’ve spent every second in your minefield digging it up Can you strain your memory back to the times When trouble wasn’t always, always on our minds Trouble wasn’t always on our minds Back to the times when trouble wasn’t always on our minds [Verse 2] And now the hotel maids were bangin’ down the door As if they came looking for some answers When ya gonna leave? Where ya gonna go? Will you get your shit together? When are you gonna marry her? Well maybe you don’t deserve her Maybe the whole thing was doomed from the start This inquisition is tearing me apart [Chorus] Could a diamond in the rough ever be enough I’ve been mining for your love Since the day that we met I’ve spent every second in your minefield digging it up Can you strain your memory back to the times When trouble wasn’t always on our minds Can you strain your memory one more time When trouble wasn’t always, always on our minds When trouble wasn’t always on our minds Back to the times when trouble wasn’t always on our minds

You post on most of the songs the lyrics so THANK YOU. Like the person above me said, you’re the mvp for that

This may be my favorite off the whole album. There are few things I love more than when that first chill of fall sets in and The Menzingers put out new music that makes me feel nostalgic for a life I've never even lived. I love this band so much

I love music with the changing of seasons. Such a great feeling

This is my favorite song on the album. I'm usually a big proponent of a rhyme scheme in songs because I just think it sounds more natural, but the lack of a rhyme scheme here really allows the singer to open up with the lyrics... the melody still flows with it and doesn't lose any magic. One of the reasons I love this band so much is that their songs have a nostalgic sound to them. There's something about their songs that make me think they could have been recorded in the 50's or 60's. That was well before my time, but that nostalgic factor amplifies their relatable lyrics and makes me feel, in some strange way, that I lived it. Well f***ing done, Menzingers.. I loved the "After the Party" album, and didn't think you could top it, but you've done it.

I think this is the reason "Your Wild Years" was my favorite from the last album. It has that same kind of open feel to it, and I couldn't get enough of that one either!

My new favourite Menzingers song

And as it became my favorite I see this comment lol

This new album is fantastic, especially this beauty

I recently discovered this song and I’ve had to force myself to stop listening to it, so I don’t burn out on it. Yet, I can’t stop and keep coming back every day 😂 I also discovered the ‘from exile’ version of this and that’s equally as good. A good different but just as good. So far, it’s my favourite Menzingers song. The drum rhythm/song pacing is so, so, catchy. Combined that with the beautiful crafted lyrics that invoke imagery of a life I feel I’ve lived, and you’ve got one hell of a song.

You guys are amazing, easily my favorite band because it's so easy to relate to you guys.

This is my favourite song ever. I love this song and ı think so underrated.

Best song this band ever wrote 10/10 song of 2019 as far as I’m concerned

I want a music video of this that acts as a sequel to the "After the Party" video
