Back seat for a bed
Nothings must be whispered
Rumours must be fed
Small town romance
Everyone knows your mind
They peep from faded curtains
They read your valentines
O you got to get away
O you got to get away
O you got to get away
O they can't stand love in a small town
They knew you when you were weaning
They knew you when you were grown
They think they know all about you
They'll never leave you alone
Small town romance
There's too many jealousies
Old maids with long gone lovers
Old flames with bad memories
O you better get away
O you better get away
O you better get away
O they can't stand love in a small town
Midnight packing and leaving
Note pinned upon the sheets
Tail lights off in the distance
A ride through the painted streets
O small town romance
They'd still break you if they could
They'd always say I told you so
She never was no good
See she never loved him anyway
See she never loved him anyway
See she never loved him anyway
O you can't have love in a small town
See she never loved him anyway
See she never loved him anyway
See she never loved him anyway
O you can't have love in a small town
Small town romance Back seat for a bed Nothings must be whispered Rumours must be fed Small town romance Everyone knows your mind They peep from faded curtains They read your valentines O you got to get away O you got to get away O you got to get away O they can't stand love in a small town They knew you when you were weaning They knew you when you were grown They think they know all about you They'll never leave you alone Small town romance There's too many jealousies Old maids with long gone lovers Old flames with bad memories O you better get away O you better get away O you better get away O they can't stand love in a small town Midnight packing and leaving Note pinned upon the sheets Tail lights off in the distance A ride through the painted streets O small town romance They'd still break you if they could They'd always say I told you so She never was no good See she never loved him anyway See she never loved him anyway See she never loved him anyway O you can't have love in a small town See she never loved him anyway See she never loved him anyway See she never loved him anyway O you can't have love in a small town Explain Request ×
