One Heartbreak Closer to You

Forever was in the airwaves

Of those radio songs

But those high school flames

Don't stay lit long

And even when it didn't work out right

It really wasn't wrong

After all

Cause that brown eyed girl in seventh grade

That broke up with me after study hall

Those tequila summer kisses

That never really did outlast the fall

And every point of the compass

That turned me upside down

And broke me into

Brought me one

Heartbreak

Closer to you

Somewhere back in college

Before I knew your name

Thought I'd met a game changer

But she didn't feel the same

Had a lot to lose but in the end

There was more to gain

Cause then you finally came

Cause that brown eyed girl in seventh grade

That broke up with me after study hall

Those tequila summer kisses

That never really did outlast the fall

And every point of the compass

That turned me upside down

And broke me into

Brought me one

Heartbreak

Closer to you

Our tailgate talk was so much more

Than just another Saturday down south

It felt so real I didn't know

If it was something I could live without

Then the whiskey convinced me

To pick up the phone

Or I'd be a fool

And that brought me one

Heartbreak

Closer to you

Every point of the compass

That turned me upside down

And broke me into

Brought me one

Heart break

Closer to you
