gina tharin - a song for all the towns that broke my heart lyrics
[verse 1]
man, the air is cool
my first day of school
pleated skirt and charcoal tights
didn’t really fit right
girl with a curly mane
she asked me what’s my name
oh, i
i asked her why
oh, if i knew
i was only p-ssing through
[verse 2]
dogwoods and cardinals
somehow this felt like home
marching bands in the street
and who knew tea could be this sweet?
i never cared for red
but it’s where i laid my head
i’d shout
i gotta get out
but i cried
’cause it was flawed, but it was mine
[chorus]
never had a chance to fall in love with you
but it’s over, i guess
never had a chance to fall in love with you
now it’s on to what’s next
so, where next?
[verse 3]
move on, and don’t despair
breathe in that mountain air
lived here when i was young
but i still can’t speak the tongue
girl with a knack for keys
oh, how she welcomed me
oh, i
i wondered why
but i knew
i had found a friend for life
[verse 4]
downtown we got our kicks
i fell in love over mezzo mix
nice kid with a winning smile
turned out not to be my style
still couldn’t drive a car
but i learned to play guitar
oh, i
i miss those times
but i knew
i would have to say goodbye
[chorus]
never had a chance to fall in love with you
but it’s over, i guess
never had a chance to fall in love with you
now it’s on to what’s next
so, where next?
[bridge]
those mountains, they got drier
the desert stretched for miles
i found my hope in music
begged it to stay a while
but when the time ran out
i moved on to rolling hills
took some time to just be still
at least, i hope i will
[verse 5]
one day, i want to be
in a city by the sea
melt through that famous freeze
with the girl who plays the keys
i know i could be wrong
but i think it’s where i belong
oh, i
i’ve got to try
they weren’t part of my plan
but these towns made me who i am
i’d go back if i could
to every single neighborhood
guess they can’t all be home
but it’s to them i owe my start
and they broke my heart
but i know
way deep down, they’re still my towns
[chorus]
never had a chance to fall in love with you
but it’s over, i guess
never had a chance to fall in love with you
now it’s on to what’s next
so, where next?
never had a chance to fall in love with you
but it’s over, i guess
in the end, i guess i fell in love with you
now i’m wondering, where next
so, where next?
