State Lines by Elizabeth Moen Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're going away one day I will too
But you should know I wanna go with you
Put some books in back, give you some space
And one day we can both leave this place
[Verse 2]
You got too much stuff and I can't quit my job
The last walks in and my heart starts to throb
Got a lump in my throat it gonna burst out
You give me one last hope and I can't help but shout
[Chorus]
So don't you, don't you, don't you
And I won't, I won't, I won't too
We can't say that we'll never loose touch
Cause were big talkers and we both know
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
We both know we won't keep in touch
[Post-Chorus]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
[Verse 3]
You get to California you forget to call
But you haven't missed much at all
You been busy finding work I've been busy mine
Finding time to catch up's been really hard to find
[Verse 4]
It's been three years since you've been around
Had to here through a friend that you'd be in town
See you on the street coming my way
You stop me with a smile and I can't help but stay
[Chorus]
So don't you, don't you, don't you
And I won't, I won't, I won't too
We can't say that we didn't loose touch
Cause were big talkers and we both know
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
We say it now no we don't mean much
Cause in the end we didn't keep touch
[Post-Chorus]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
[Bridge]
Glad that San Fransisco feels like home now
I wanna tell you how I miss you but I don't know how
This place is cold and dark without you
Maybe on day I move to California too
[Outro]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
You're going away one day I will too
But you should know I wanna go with you
Put some books in back, give you some space
And one day we can both leave this place
[Verse 2]
You got too much stuff and I can't quit my job
The last walks in and my heart starts to throb
Got a lump in my throat it gonna burst out
You give me one last hope and I can't help but shout
[Chorus]
So don't you, don't you, don't you
And I won't, I won't, I won't too
We can't say that we'll never loose touch
Cause were big talkers and we both know
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
We both know we won't keep in touch
[Post-Chorus]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
[Verse 3]
You get to California you forget to call
But you haven't missed much at all
You been busy finding work I've been busy mine
Finding time to catch up's been really hard to find
[Verse 4]
It's been three years since you've been around
Had to here through a friend that you'd be in town
See you on the street coming my way
You stop me with a smile and I can't help but stay
[Chorus]
So don't you, don't you, don't you
And I won't, I won't, I won't too
We can't say that we didn't loose touch
Cause were big talkers and we both know
Whatever we say no we don't mean much
We say it now no we don't mean much
Cause in the end we didn't keep touch
[Post-Chorus]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
[Bridge]
Glad that San Fransisco feels like home now
I wanna tell you how I miss you but I don't know how
This place is cold and dark without you
Maybe on day I move to California too
[Outro]
The grass looks greener on the other side
On the other side of these state lines
