Goodbye Town

Right there's the high school where we met
We'd sneak out back for a couple kisses and a cigarette
And that parking lot was our first date
And her mom slammed the door when I dropped her off too late

She's gone
Chasin' that highway wind
She's gone
She ain't comin' back again

This ain't nothin'
Nothin' but a goodbye town
These streets are only bringin' me down
Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town

We'd sit down on those courthouse steps
Fourth of July, those fireworks over our heads
They'd ring the bells in that little church
No, there ain't nowhere I can look that doesn't hurt

She's gone
But I still feel her on my skin
She's gone
And she ain't comin' back again

This ain't nothin'
Nothin' but a goodbye town
These streets are only bringin' me down
Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town

I can't erase the memories
And I can't burn the whole place down
No, this ain't nothin'
Nothin' but a goodbye town
To heaven I'm stickin' around

Gotta find a way to finally get out
Out of this goodbye town
Oh yeah
I'm out of this goodbye town
I'm out of this town
So out of this town

You'll be just a memory
In the back of my mind
You'll be just a memory, yeah
Oh, somewhere in the back of my mind
In the back of my mind, yeah

Oh, one day you're gonna regret
What we had
You're gonna think of me
You're gonna think of me
But I won't lose hope
I won't be losin'
