Didn't Go Too Far

(album: Didn't Go Too Far - 2022)

Well, her eyes were the home team colors
Her mama was the homecoming queen
Her pops coached at the high school
In that town, her roots ran deep
She always talked about settling down
Building a house off a gravel road
Well, she was my first everything
I thought she'd be my last
Guess the fire of a young love
Sure burns out fast
When you hear goodbye, tears in her eyes
And then she drives five minutes home

There's only one bar, there's only one church
How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn?
I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart
'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far

I wish she was like every other girl chasing big city dreams
She didn't go to every game and our mamas didn't talk every week
'Cause all I hear about when I go out is how you're doing good

There's only one bar, there's only one church
How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn?
I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart
'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far

I wish she'd have packed her bags, never looked back
'Cause it's tearing me apart

There's only one bar, there's only one church
How do I move on when I see her everywhere I turn?
I can't go anywhere to get away, and it's hell on the heart
'Cause the one that got away didn't go too far
No, didn't go too far
