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, 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
