Long Story Short

(专辑： Blacktop - 2023)

We were young
And it was real
We might be done
But it sure as hell ain't healed

You turned off the song right before that last chorus played
Guess you and I just weren't on the same page

You could've been mine, I could've been yours
We could've been dragging cans driving off in this Ford
We had this whole town betting on you and me
But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anything
It could've been love, but it ain't no more
We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm
But when you broke my heart and you slammed that door
Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short

That piece of land
Dad handed down
Could've been our home
Oh, but it's just an empty field now

You closed the book on us right before that chapter
Guess we'll never know about "happy ever after"

You could've been mine, I could've been yours
We could've been dragging cans driving off in this Ford
We had this whole town betting on you and me
But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anything
It could've been love, but it ain't no more
We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm
But when you broke my heart and you slammed that door
Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short

Long story short

You took a forever kind of future and put it in the past
Yeah, the worst thing about parting ways like that

Is you could've been mine, I could've been yours
We could've been dragging cans driving off in this Ford
We had this whole town betting on you and me
But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anything
It could've been love, but it ain't no more
We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm
But when you broke my heart and you slammed that door
Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short

Long story short
Life-long story short
