There used to be places only we would go Under the shade of the oak tree over the old dirt road This town was our kingdom, I was your whole world Right from the moment we met, I knew that you would be my girl But people get older, hearts they grow colder Now there ain't no place that I can hide 'Cause there's nowhere to run to in a small town There's nowhere the memory don't follow me around 'Cause you're there on every corner Every street is us There's no bigger way of breaking up Than in a small town In a small town, mm-mm From the old churchyard, to the corner store It's like everywhere that I go, your face is living in the walls (living in the walls) 'Cause there's no escaping who we used to be This town is a hot, dry, dusty love song to you and me But people get older, hearts they grow colder Now there ain't no place that I can hide 'Cause there's nowhere to run to in a small town There's nowhere the memory don't follow me around 'Cause you're there on every corner Every street is us There's no bigger way of breaking up Than in a small town In a small town (in a small town) I know that everybody's talking Choosing the words they say with caution All of the whispers sound like shouting in my ears 'Cause there's nowhere to run to in a small town There's nowhere the memory don't follow me around There's no keeping secrets in a small town (in a small town) There's a real good chance that's all that anyone's talkin' 'bout You're there on every corner Every street is us There's no bigger way of breaking up Than in a small town (In a small town, living in a small town) When you're living in a small town, living in a small town (In a small town, living in a small town) (In a small town, living in a small town) In a small town
