Small Town

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

From the old church yard, to the corner store

It's like everywhere that I go your face is 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

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

(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
