Small Town Songtext
von Casey Barnes

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
