"This Town" lyrics

And, this town's grown strange
It don't ever do nothin' but get in the way
Of gettin' over you
And this was a different place
Just like us this town used to be great
But now I can't stay

And I been tryin' to make a change
Oh but I just can't escape
Down in this town

And this house ain't a home
These old boards just creak and moan
Since you been gone
And this street's full of holes
Folks used to stop and say hello
But they don't anymore

And I been tryin' to find my way
But I don't recognize the face
Oh of this town

And ever since you left I find it hard to believe you're gone
And I'm always lookin' for something every place I go
A stranger in my own home
Here in this town

And this town is grey
I can only see the cracks in the paint
Where all the colors fade
There ain't nothin' in this place
Worth pullin' off the highway to see
I best be on my way

There's just memories of you and me
I guess darlin' it's time I should be
Leavin' this town

And ever since you left I find it hard to believe you're gone
And I'm always lookin' for something every place I go
A stranger in my own home
Here in this town
