One Man Lyrics

They're building up big houses
Back behind the school
Where we used to drink
Our beer on Friday nights
And pretend that
We were lovers in your carWe can't afford to live there
So we drive on past their marble and glass
Hoping that this blue collar town of ours
Won't ever lose its ballsI was just a little girl
When your hand brushed by my hand
And I will be an old woman
Happy to have spent
My whole life with one manBehind that school we found romance
We laid in the dirt and took off our shirts
While the lucky ones would fly away
On planes to other cities, other townsNow they're building up houses
Big enough to lose your love
Big enough to never even see

One another in the darkOne man, one town is all I need
A simple plan to guide me
Through the simple life I leadI have seen the ocean
And I have seen the sky
I do not need a big house
Or the ability to flyWe'll remember the summers
The crumbling town streets
Running from police
And acting like we'd leave this place
The minute we ever had the chance
