Growin' up we swore
We came from nowhere
Three stoplights right
Off the interstate
And always dreamed
That one day
We'd be leavin'
Yeah
The years went by
And we could
Hardly wait

Last time
We saw that town
We were draggin' cans
Just married written
On the windows of my van

But I guess
Nowhere is somewhere
She'd rather be
Yeah, right back
In the last place
She ever thought
She'd see

And I guess lovin' me
Is harder than
It appears to be
Cause she'd
Rather be nowhere
Than somewhere with me

Came up here
To some place people
Heard of
And drove
These city streets
Like a wanted man
But I guess
I was too hard
To hang onto
Yeah, goin' back
Was never
In her plans

Man
I though that nothin'
Could make
Her leave this place
Other than a goodbye
That's the hardest thing
To face

But I guess
Nowhere is somewhere
She'd rather be
Yeah, right back
In the last place
She ever thought
She'd see

And I guess lovin' me
Is harder than
It appears to be
Cause she'd
Rather be nowhere
Than somewhere with me

When I think about
What she'd gone back to
Then I think about
What I put her through
And I guess
Nowhere is somewhere
She'd rather be
Yeah, right back
In the last place
She ever thought
She'd see
And I guess lovin' me
Is harder than
It appears to be
Cause she'd rather be
Nowhere than somewhere
Yeah, out there
Than right here
Nowhere than somewhere
With me
Than right here with me
