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
