I KNEW I'D SEE HER
AROUND
I'D BE AT SOME PARTY
AND SHE'D SHOW
UP AND I'D BE
WALKING OUT
OR ACROSS SOME
PARKING LOT
HIDING BEHIND HER SISTER
I'D LOOK UP SHE'D BE AT
THE RED LIGHT
BESIDE ME
IN THAT WHITE
MAXIMA WITH
THE STICKER ON
THE BACK
I'D ACT LIKE I DIDN'T
SEE HER
WE'D PAY AT THE
SAME PUMPS
FLIP THROUGH THE
SAME STATIONS
AND SLOW DOWN FOR
THE SAME CURVES
RUN AROUND WITH
THE SAME CROWD
WE JUST NEEDED
SOME TIME
SHE COULD GET
ON WITH HER
LIFE AND I'D GET
ON WITH MINE
THOUGHT I WOULD
BE FINE
BUT MAYBE NOT
I KNEW SHE'D FIND A
WAY TO GET OVER ME
BUT I'D NEVER
THOUGHT
SHE WOULD GET DOWN
WITH SOMEBODY I KNOW
I GUESS THAT'S JUST
HOW IT GOES
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
I SEE OUR FRIENDS AND
THEY PUT ON A SHOW
LIKE THEY DON'T
WANT ME TO KNOW
SO THEY GIVE ME
THE GO-AROUND
BUT THERE'S ONLY SO MANY
STREETS SO MANY LIGHTS
I SWEAR IT'S LIKE I CAN'T
EVEN LEAVE MY HOUSE
I SHOULD'VE KNOWN
ALL ALONG
YOU GOTTA MOVE
TO MOVE ON
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
FOR A WHILE I GUESS THEY
WERE KEEPING IT LOW-KEY
BUT NOW IT'S LIKE
THESE COUNTY
LINES CLOSING IN ON ME
AND I SEE 'EM EVERYWHERE
TOGETHER
AND IT'S HITTING A LITTLE
TOO CLOSE TO HOME
AND SHE'S SO FAR GONE BUT
SHE DIDN'T GO FAR
SHE WAS OVER ME
BEFORE THE
GRASS GREW BACK WHERE
SHE USED TO PARK HER CAR
SHE'S LEAVING
THOSE SAME
MARKS IN SOMEONE
ELSE'S YARD
IN SOMEONE ELSE'S
ARMS
RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD
AND I NEVER
THOUGHT
SHE WOULD GET DOWN
WITH SOMEBODY I KNOW
I GUESS THAT'S
JUST HOW IT GOES
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
I SEE OUR FRIENDS AND
THEY PUT ON A SHOW
LIKE THEY DON'T
WANT ME TO KNOW
SO THEY GIVE ME
THE GO-AROUND
BUT THERE'S ONLY SO MANY
STREETS SO MANY LIGHTS
I SWEAR IT'S LIKE I CAN'T
EVEN LEAVE MY HOUSE
I SHOULD'VE KNOWN
ALL ALONG
YOU GOTTA MOVE
TO MOVE ON
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
HER MAILBOX IS SEVEN
MINUTES FROM MINE
AND I DRIVE INTO TOWN
SOMETIMES
I SEE HER SITTIN'
THERE WITH HIM
AND I WANNA JUMP OUT
I WANNA FIGHT
I WANNA SAY THAT
GUY BUT I CAN'T
'CAUSE IT'S MY FAULT
AND I LET HER GO
I NEVER THOUGHT
SHE WOULD GET DOWN
WITH SOMEBODY I KNOW
I GUESS THAT'S
JUST HOW IT GOES
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
I SEE OUR FRIENDS AND
THEY PUT ON A SHOW
LIKE THEY DON'T WANT
ME TO KNOW
SO THEY GIVE ME
THE GO-AROUND
THERE'S ONLY SO MANY
STREETS SO MANY LIGHTS
I SWEAR IT'S LIKE I CAN'T
EVEN LEAVE MY HOUSE
I SHOULD'VE KNOWN
ALL ALONG
YOU GOTTA MOVE
OR MOVE ON
WHEN YOU BREAK UP
IN A SMALL TOWN
