Well, her eyes were the home team colors Her mama was the homecoming queen Her pops coached at the high school In that town, her roots ran deep She always talked about settling down Building a house off a gravel road She was my first everything I thought she'd be my last Guess the fire of a young love Sure burns out fast When you hear goodbye, tears in her eyes And then she drives five minutes home There's only one bar, there's only one church How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn? I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart 'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far
I wish she was like every other girl chasing big city dreams She didn't go to every game and our mamas didn't talk every week 'Cause all I hear about when I go out is how you're doing good There's only one bar, there's only one church How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn? I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart 'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far ♪ Wish she'd have packed her bags, never looked back 'Cause it's tearing me apart There's only one bar, there's only one church How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn? I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart 'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far No, didn't go too far
