Lyrics
She's got her mothers laugh and...
She's got her father's grin
But she's got her grandma's sense of style
She's got her mother's eyes and
It causes her to see in a fog...
Of indecision, she doesn't like to be alone
She doesn't even know who she is
She is just covered in shades of green and gray
She doesn't even recognize...
All the subtleties in the way she sees
She says, I've got to get out of this town
Because I'm afraid it's going to grow on me
I don't think that I could call this place home...
For even one more day...
So, let's run away
She says I've got to leave here
I said, well, yes, but when?
She said, in my mind I'm already gone
Just more thing that I've got to do here
One more thing always turns to two
Somehow, I don't think she'll ever go
I wish that I could see her fire
I wish that I could fan her flames
I wish I could burn the bridges to her past
She doesn't even know who she is
She is just covered in shades of green and gray
She doesn't even recognize...
All the subtleties in the way she sees
She says, I've got to get out of this town
Because I'm afraid it's going to grow on me
And I don't think that I could call this place home...
For even one more day...
Let's run away
So, we drift in the sea of life and...
Follow our dreams, the waves push us around
Sometimes, those waves aren't big enough
She's in a boat with a thousand pound anchor
And never drifts too far from home
Small town girl, big city dreams.
