Lyrics

If I lived in your town I'd have to move away
If I lived in your town there's no way I could stay
If I lived in your town I couldn't sleep at night
Nothing would be right If I lived in your town

Drove into town
was passing through
Saw you on the corner combing your hair (sizzle................)
I had to pull right over
cause I lost my breath
You are always somewhere that I never expect
I don't wanna be knowing
about where you've been
I don't wanna hear about the wild oats that you're sowing

If I lived in your town I'd become a nun
If i lived in your town there's nowhere that I could run
If I lived in your town I'd see you everywhere
Everyone would stare if i lived in your town

I guess I never knew
what you were thinking
You always played the victim so well
All the shameless fights
And your wandering eyes
Now driving away is better than arriving

If I lived in your town I'd have to move away
If I lived in your town there's no way I could stay
If I lived in your town I couldn't sleep at night
Nothing would be right If I lived in your town

If i lived in your town I'd have to change my name
If i lived in your town I'd have plastic surgery
If i lived in your town I'd wind up doing time
Nothing would be right if I lived in your town

BRIDGE
The sun catcher spins
Hanging' off my rearview mirror
I watched you disappear
You used to be my hero.... We were in love
solo

If I lived in your town I'd have to move away
If I lived in your town there's no that way I could stay
If I lived in your town I wouldn't sleep at night
Nothing would be right If I lived in your town

If I lived in your town I'd commit a crime
If I lived in your town I'd put poison in your wine
If I lived in your town I'd make you disappear
I wouldn't shed a tear if I lived in your town
