This Town

(album: Bryan White - 1994)

This town doesn't understand
Two people making dreams and plans
They say we're much too young
In this town

This town's full of narrow minds
Can't see beyond the city limit signs
They close the bedroom blinds
In this town

I've done some thinking and I realize
There's more than dairy queens and Friday nights
While we're still young, we've gotta get away
Together we can make our break

From this town word'll get around
Two renegades escaped
No, they couldn't keep us down
And this town will be a dime store memory
Baby, I just know it
There's a better place to be than this town
Oh, this town

Now this town's got a factory
Not much future here for you and me
It's as far as they can see
In this town

I've heard the wind blowing at my door
Voices telling me there's so much more
It's easy to get bored
In this town

I've just got to see those those city lights
It's time we spread our wings and learn to fly
They'll never catch us if we disappear
Oh the interstate is much to near

To this town word'll get around
Two renegades escaped
No, they couldn't keep us down
And this town will be a dime store memory
Baby, I just know it
There's a better place to be than this town
Oh, this town

Can't you just hear them talking their righteous words
Burning down the wire
What do we care what they think now
Thinkin's not allowed in this town

This town word'll get around
Two renegades escaped
No, they couldn't keep us down
And this town will be a dime store memory
Baby, I just know it
There's a better place to be than this town
Oh, this town

This town
This town
This town
