Why are you in a town like this
You’re more leading man, protagonist
Not stacking shelves hearing the same church bells
You’ve always been something else
You know when you walk in the room
Everyone feels it move
They don’t have to know your name
To feel the spark of your flame
You should go but know I’d miss you
You’re destined for bigger things
So go ahead spread your wings and find
What city life brings
Where the cold don’t sting
Take the back roads of our town
I’ll just be a face in your crowd
I’m here to tell you
My lights go out
When you’re not around
Don’t you know the best of what life brings is where you are
When you fall in love
It’s always enough
People spend their whole lives looking for what we found in this small town
They’re tryna fall in love
It will never feel like home
Chasing stars on my own
Want loving eyes not flashing city lights
No nothing compares to you
I might find myself center-stage
With people singing and screaming my name
But nothing sounds sweeter than when you’re here beside me and
I’m not leaving here without you
So go ahead and say I’d miss you
But there’s no way that I would leave you to find
What city life brings
I don’t need the sting
Of being out there without you
I don’t need the crowd I’ve got you
Let me remind you
My lights go out
When you’re not around
Don’t you know the best of what life brings is where you are
When you fall in love
It’s always enough
People spend their whole lives looking for what we found in this small town
They’re tryna fall in love
And you say that you’ll wait for me
But every single night is what I need
You’re my voice in every song I sing
Oh you say you’ll stay in my heart
But I would rather be here in your arms
Don’t you know by now that baby you’re all I see
My lights go out
When you’re not around
Don’t you know the best of what life brings is where you are
When you fall in love
It’s always enough
People spend their whole lives looking for what we found in this small town
People spend their whole lives looking for what we found
We found love
