Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Small town girl
Coca-Cola grin
Honeysuckle skin
Born beneath the ready sign
Of a strawberry moon
[Verse 2]
Small town girl
Shows up for her friends
Crazy about The Bends
I was there when she first put away childish things
[Verse 3]
We had spring in our heels
Unwavering forces
Headfirst into the unknown
[Verse 4]
Like runaway horses
In a fever till the end
And every step is a silver prayer
In the face of a hard wind
[Verse 5]
You traded school
For weddings rings and rent
Invitations sent
Of you and him by a barn
Out on the edge of town
[Verse 6]
Small town girl
Put your dreams on ice
Never thinking twice
Some you'll surely forget
And some that you never will
[Verse 7]
There was a promise in our stride
But we changed courses
Headfirst into the unknown
[Verse 8]
Like runaway horses
In a fever till the end
And every step is a silver prayer
In the face of a hard wind
[Verse 9]
Like runaway horses
It's a long way back home again
When every step is a silver prayer
In the face of a hard wind
