Spread the map on the table With the coffee stain Put your finger on the places Show me where you’ve been Is that California where your teardrops dried You drew a circle around Georgia Can you tell me why I see should have beens, could have beens Written all over your face Wrong turns, and bridges burned Things you want to change It’s history You can’t rewrite it You’re not meant to be trapped inside it Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered It’s history But every mile mattered Get the box off the top shelf With the black and white Snapshots of your old self In a better light Ghosts and regrets back again I can see it in your eyes Send them home, let ‘em go Don’t you think it’s time It’s history You can’t rewrite it You’re not meant to be trapped inside it Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered It’s history But every mile mattered Every road and every bend Every bruise and bitter end All you squandered, all you spent It mattered, it mattered Mercy always finds a way To wrap your blisters up in grace Every highway you’d erase It mattered, it mattered But it’s history It don’t define ya You’re free to leave It all behind ya Every tear brought you here Every sorrow gathered It’s history But every mile mattered Every mile mattered
