Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
Long way now through the deadroads in our hometown
I never tried to hold you tight, until you left me and fade
Neighborhoods, under the lights, we felt our hearts grow strong
I never tried to hold you tight, until you left me there at home
Oooooo
Oooooo
It's a long way now through the deadroads to your house
I never tried to hold you tight until you left me and fade
Neighborhoods we learned to drive, we learned to grow up strong
I never tried to hold you tight until you left me
And I should run away and think of those
Nights not up close, still hold the ghost of our empty town
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
Long way now through the deadroads in our hometown
I never tried to hold you tight until you left me and fade
Neighborhoods under the lights, we felt our hearts grow strong
I never tried to hold you tight until you left me
And I should run away and think of those
Nights not up close, still hold a ghost of our empty town
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
Oooooo
