Dear Small Town

lyrics

Dear small town, I think I need to go
Dear small town, things here move way too slow
Dear small town, twelve years and counting oh, no
Dear small town, I need to run away

Dear small town, we've disagreed I know
Dear small town, I know I'm like you more than I show
Dear small town, I'm gonna miss you so much
Dear small town, I think that you're okay

It's just that
I've had it up to here, oh
You've had it up to there, oh
Someone's moving on forever

I never liked it here, though
I always loved it there, oh
Someone's trying hard to never let go

We'll be back just like we always are
Midnight runs, gas station, ditch that car
Greasy food and green tea are never far
Dear small town, I think that you're okay

I've had it up to here, oh
You've had it up to there, oh
Someone's moving on forever

I never liked it here, though
I always loved it there, oh
Someone's trying hard to never let go

When we do it right, we'll be up all night
When we do it right I gaurantee
We'll be up, we'll be up all night long
