I never wandered about without the fear of getting lost
I never loved a girl without the worry of being tossed
Nothing in the air I breathe suggests that I'll run out
Let my reflection in the river water remove all my doubt
Nashville, you're slipping right through my fingers
I'm sure there's a life for us here
Don't you feel like something's missing?
One day it will all seem so clear
The sun's comin' up not a moment too soon
We're on our way out the door
There's nothing quite like the day
after
a night spent on the floor
I'm a living a lie, and there's no way to slow back down
We'll say our goodbyes and get the hell right out of town
Nashville, you're slipping right through my fingers
I'm sure there's a life for us here
Don't you feel like something's missing?
One day it will all seem so clear
Can't deny a love that's going under
How can I hold on to something without being held back?
Some nights I will dream about the places we will go
Maybe our wishes all come true
or maybe we just get old.
Nashville, you're slipping right through my fingers
I know there's a life for us here
Don't you feel like something's missing?
One day it will all seem so clear
