Old Town New

Tim McGraw · Live Like You Were Dying [2004]

On a lover's leap with a freeway view

Sittin' on my hood, thinkin' bout you

Goin' over in my mind, every kiss

And every fight

Yeah, the fool on the hill

Is beaten down another night



There were days so hard

I thought I had to go

I'd get in my car and just follow the road

But this is my home and it's who I am

And I know I'd stay if I could



Make this old town new again

A color other than blue again

I'd have something to do again

Instead of thinking of you again

But the people I know

The places I go

Remind me of you

Won't somebody come around

And make this old town new



There were nights so long

I thought the sun burned out

There were girls so wrong

I don't wanna talk about

I was burning up the night, yeah

In an alcohol flame

Lighting up my way, trying to



Make this old town new again

A color other than blue again

I'd have something to do again

Instead of thinking of you again

But the people I know

The places I go

Remind me of you

Won't somebody come around

And make this old town new



But the people I know

And the places I go

Remind me of you



Love goes wrong, but life goes

And I know what I gotta do

I'm just hanging around

Tryin' to make this old town new



And won't ya come on, I come on

I come on around you

Won't ya come on, I come on

Won't somebody come around here, please
