Well in you
The good I’ll do
The good I’ll do
Oh, the good I’ll do
The way the grass smells at night
And you got flames all in your eyes
As they reflect the sparkler
And you say we’ll never die
Grabbed me by the hands
Just as callused as I am
Say you’re proud
Well it’s blue jeans in the driveway
And you’re walking inside sideways
The wine always affects you
In beautiful kind ways
Ask me if I’m staying
And I say that I’m sleeping on the floor
Won’t you tell me that you need me
‘Cause lately I’ve been needing
Someone to remind me
Worth more than just an evening
I awoke to kitchen smoke
You dancing like God’s moved in you before
Well in you
The good I’ll do
The good I’ll do
Oh, the good I’ll do
Well in you
I’m new
I’m new
Oh, how I’m new
Well look in my eyes
I don’t wanna hide
I’ve been waiting for you
All damn night
Sundress I’ll undress
With nails on your skin
Turning white
Getting high out in Austin
Drunk in Tennessee
I don’t care where I am
As long as you’re with me
Those boys downtown talk so much shit when I leave
Well in you
The good I’ll do
The good I’ll do
Oh, the good I’ll do
‘Cause in you
I’m new
I’m new
Oh, how I’m new
The way the grass smells at night
And you got flames all in your eyes
As they reflect the sparkler
And you say we’ll never die
Grab me by the hands
Just as calloused as I am
And say you’re proud
Finding Hope and Renewal in Love

The lyrics paint vivid scenes of simple, intimate moments—like the smell of grass at night and the glow of sparklers—underscoring the authenticity and rawness of the relationship.

Bryan’s storytelling bridges vulnerability and strength, using everyday experiences (blue jeans in the driveway, dancing in the kitchen) to explore themes of acceptance, belonging, and personal growth. Each verse reveals a journey from solitude and longing to feeling valued and renewed, making the song a heartfelt ode to the healing power of love.
