  • I knew I'd see her around

  • I'd be at some party, she'd show up and I'd be walking out

  • Or across some parking lot hiding behind her sister

  • I'd look up, she'd be at the red light beside me

  • In that white Maxima with the sticker on the back

  • I'd act like I didn't see her

  • We'd pay at the same pumps

  • Flip through the same stations

  • And slow down for the same curves

  • Run around with the same crowds

  • We just needed some time

  • She could get on with her life and I'd get on with mine

  • Thought I would be fine, heh, but maybe not

  • I knew she'd find a way to get over me

  • But I'd never thought that...

  • She would get down with somebody I know

  • I guess that's just how it goes

  • When you break up in a small town

  • I see our friends and they 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, so many lights

  • I swear it's like I can't even leave my house

  • I should've known all along

  • You gotta move or move on

  • When you break up in a small town

  • For a while I guess they were keeping it low-key

  • But now it's like these county lines closing in on me

  • I see 'em everywhere together

  • And it's hitting a little too close to home

  • She's so far gone, she didn't go far

  • She was over me before the grass grew back where she used to park her car

  • She's leaving those same marks in someone else's yard

  • In someone else's arms right down the road

  • And I never thought that...

  • She would get down with somebody I know

  • I guess that's just how it goes

  • When you break up in a small town

  • I see our friends and they 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, so many lights

  • I swear it's like I can't even leave my house

  • I should've known all along

  • You gotta move or move on

  • When you break up in a small town

  • Your mailbox is seven minutes from mine

  • And I drive into town sometimes I see you sittin' there with him

  • And I wanna jump out

  • I wanna fight

  • I wanna say, "... that guy!" but I can't

  • It's my fault, I let her go

  • I never thought that...

  • She would get down with somebody I know

  • I guess that's just how it goes

  • When you break up in a small town

  • I see our friends and they 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, so many lights

  • I swear it's like I can't even leave my house

  • I should've known all along

  • You gotta move or move on

  • When you break up in a small town

I knew I'd see her around
