If There’s Anyplace You Ain’t Been, Let’s Go There

I never knew the girl you used to be

I only wanted you to be with me

But over time I’ve noticed that it’s true

That in this town, everyone started with you

Our social life has never left the ground

My buddies’ wives won’t let them come around

I think it’s time we move to someplace new

Cause in this town, everyone started with you.

You don’t forget your first love or that time so long ago

But there’s too much recollectin’ going on, I think you know

Why all the firemen and policemen smile and wave as we drive by

And why the preacher speaks your name, with a sigh –

I never thought this town would be too small for me to bear,

But if there’s anyplace you ain’t been, let’s go there.

You always said I’d changed your life around

You’re thankful for the happiness you’ve found

I love you but we’ve got to start anew

Cause in this town, everyone started with you.

Everybody’s got a first love somewhere in their heart

But you were first for everyone, you gave them all a start

I know you love me darlin and that you would never stray

But you have to see, we have to get away -

I never thought this town would be too small for me to bear,
