I knew I'd see her around, might be at some party
She'd show up and I'd be walking out
Or across some parking lot, hiding behind her sister
Or I'd look up and she'd be at the red light beside me
In that white Max and with a sticker on her back
And I'd act like I didn't see her
But we'd pay at the same pumps, live through the same stations
Slow down for the same curves, run around with the same crowd
We just needed some time, she'd get on with her life
And I'd get on with mine, thought I'd be fine
Maybe not, I knew she'd find a way to get over me
But I never thought that she would get down
Somebody I know, I guess it's just how it goes
When you break up in a small town, I see your friends
Put on a show like they don't want me to know
So they give me the go around
But there's only so many
Streets and so many lights
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
And on all along, you gotta move and move on
You break up in a small town
For a while I guess they kept it low key
But now it's like these county lines
Are closing in on me
Cause I see them everywhere together
And it just hits close to home
Cause she's so far gone
But she didn't go far
It was over me before the grass grew back
When she used to park her car
She's leaving those same arms
In someone else's yard
In someone else's arms right down the road
And I never thought that she would get down
Somebody I know, I guess it's just how it goes
When you break up in a small town
I see your friends
Put on a show like they don't want me to know
So they give me the go around
But there's only so many streets
And so many lights
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
Shouldn't hold on long
You gotta move and move on
You break up in a small town
Your mailbox is seven minutes from mine
And I drive into town sometimes
And I see you sitting there with him
And I wanna jump out, I wanna fight
I wanna save that guy
But I don't wanna die
I can't cause it's my fault
I let her go but I never thought
She would get down
Somebody I know, I guess it's just how it goes
When you break up in a small town
I see your friends
Put on a show like they don't want me to know
So they give me the go around
But there's only so many streets
And so many lights
I swear it's like I can't even leave my house
Shouldn't hold on long
Gotta move and move on
You break up in a small town
You break up in a small town
