Two Towns Over (And Gone)

---

Verse 1

Saw your taillights fade in the rearview haze

Dust on the road and a goodbye wave

Didn’t take long for the signs to read

You were chasing a dream that didn’t need me

Packed up your past in the back of that car

Left me here under the same old stars

Now every mile’s just a little more proof

You can’t run from the truth, but I can’t run with you

Chorus

Two towns over, and gone

Like the last verse fading on

Slippin’ out past the lines I know

Chasing dreams I can’t follow

Just a shadow in the rising dawn

Two towns over… and gone

Verse 2

I still drive by where the river bends

Where you swore forever had no end

But forever’s just a word you say

When you don’t know you’ll be leaving someday

I keep hearing your laugh in the radio static

Like you’re still here, but I know that’s magic

You’re somewhere new with your windows down

While I’m still stuck in this goodbye town

Chorus

Two towns over, and gone

Like the last verse fading on

Slippin’ out past the lines I know

Chasing dreams I can’t follow

Just a shadow in the rising dawn

Two towns over… and gone

Bridge

Maybe the road will lead you back someday

Or maybe you’ll fade like the signs on the highway

I can’t hold on to what’s already flown

You’re a place on the map I can’t call home

Final Chorus

Two towns over, and gone

Like the last verse fading on

Slippin’ out past the lines I know

Chasing dreams I can’t follow

Just a shadow in the rising dawn

Two towns over… and gone

Outro

Just a name I still lean on

Two towns over… and gone
