[Verse 1]
I love the way home feels and smells,
been here since 12,
that's where I tripped,
that's where I fell,
I sleep by that tree and dreamt so well,
I never knew a girl like you, ah,
and I sure won't meet another
but if you cant see that this old street isn't big enough for me then
We've been in different places, I'ma just go, I'ma just go [X2]
[Chorus]
You can stay in that small town (town town), but I'ma breakout
I'd rather lose your love then have to stay and live in doubt
Now I'm leaving home for another place on a different street, in a different state
Now I'm leaving home cause you always say it's the only way you'd wish I'd stay (stay stay stay)
Now I'm leaving home, I'm leaving home
[Verse 2]
I can find a place that's well and good as well as you,
but I need change and change needs me too (too too too)
I can't come second for a second, but first of all it's not my fault
You may hate me try to blame me,
your friends won't hear my side at all
We'll split and tear, bid farwell
You told me I'm not welcome here
We can laugh it off over coffee when I visit next year
It's just that
We've been in different places, I'ma just go, I'ma just go [X2]
[Chorus]
You can stay in that small town (town town), but I'ma breakout
I'd rather lose your love then have to stay and live in doubt
Now I'm leaving home for another place on a different street, in a different state
Now I'm leaving home cause you always say it's the only way you'd wish I'd stay (stay stay stay)
Now I'm leaving home, I'm leaving home
Watch me go [X2]
We've been in different places, I'ma just go, I'ma just go [X4]
[Chorus]
You can stay in that small town (town town), but I'ma breakout
I'd rather lose your love then have to stay and live in doubt
Now I'm leaving home for another place on a different street, in a different state
Now I'm leaving home cause you always say it's the only way you'd wish I'd stay (stay stay stay)
Now I'm leaving home, I'm leaving home
We've been in different places [X5]
