Lyrics

Dust on my boots from the same dirt road
Friday night lights and the ferris wheel glow
She walks in, and my heartbeat knows
That smile could raise the dead I chose
Mama's best friend's already on the phone
Talkin' 'bout the nights I should've gone home
I tip my hat, try to play it slow
But her daddy's shotgun stories still echo
Same old faces in the neon haze
Every song's a ghost from better days
I just wanna love somebody new
Who ain't wearin' the scars from the ones I knew
In this one-stoplight town where the whispers chase
Every pretty face got somebody's grace
Yeah, I'm haunted by small town ghosts
Dancin' in the headlights, raisin' a toast
To the girl who ran and the boy who stayed too long
Lord, send me a stranger 'fore my heart turns stone
Grew up with a Bible and a beer in my hand
Learned early that leavin' makes a man
Ex's ring still shines on her hand next door
While the diner girl knows the same old score
She pours my coffee, says I'm doin' fine
But her eyes tell a story 'bout the grapevine
Tried the apps, but the signal fades past the pines
And every match just knows my kind
I just wanna love somebody new
Who ain't wearin' the scars from the ones I knew
In this one-stoplight town where the whispers chase
Every pretty face got somebody's grace
Yeah, I'm haunted by small town ghosts
Dancin' in the headlights, raisin' a toast
To the girl who ran and the boy who stayed too long
Lord, send me a stranger 'fore my heart turns stone
Maybe I'll pack my bags, chase the city lights
Find a place where no one knows my fights
But these roots run deep like the river rain
Pullin' me back to the hurt again
One more prayer on a tailgate dawn
Whiskey gone, but the fire still on
I just wanna love somebody new
Who ain't wearin' the scars from the ones I knew I
n this one-stoplight town where the whispers chase
Every pretty face got somebody's grace
Yeah, I'm haunted by small town ghosts
Dancin' in the headlights, raisin' a toast
To the girl who ran and the boy who stayed too long
Lord, send me a stranger... yeah, send me someone strong
'Fore this heart turns stone Small town ghosts Leave me alone
