We could ride our bikes forever just the tires and the road together
The wind in our hair man the freedom
No helmets nah we didn't need 'em
We'd hit up the country store, the one that ain't there no more
Be home when the streetlights came on
Yeah those kind of days they are gone
Cause there's a parking lot where paradise was
They're building condos and driving the prices up
It used to be washed up Silverados, now it's all Range Rovers and Tahoes
Used to be a country mile now it's miles of houses going up and down
It used to feel safe to wander 'round, you could go to sleep and not hear a sound
Except the peace and quiet that you chased and found
Things change, it feels strange I guess that's life now
Living in a big small town
Ain't nothing wrong with things progressing, yeah I should probably accept it
Cause they'll all just move on without me
But I'll always miss how it used to be
When it was washed up Silverados now it's all Range Rovers and Tahoes
Used to be a country mile now it's miles of houses going up and down
It used to feel safe to wander 'round, you could go to sleep and not hear a sound
Except the peace and quiet that you chased and found
Things change, it feels strange I guess that's life now
Living in a big small town
Cause there's a parking lot where paradise was
When I drive around all I can think of
When it was just washed up Silverados now it's all Range Rovers and Tahoes
Used to be a country mile now it's miles of houses going up and down
It used to feel safe to wander 'round, you could go to sleep and not hear a sound
Except the peace and quiet that you chased and found
Things change, it feels strange I guess that's life now
Living in a big small town
I miss my small town
