Leaving Looks Good on You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You've been dodging potholes and "I love you's" Since your daddy got a job here, two thousand and two Big city dreamer with the small town blues Yeah, you caught my heart and everybody's eye At the karaoke bar singing "One Headlight" Finished your drink, told me in the neon light "I'm meant for more than this" And I agreed with a kiss And said [Chorus] Run, run, baby Out of this town If California's calling, go and chase it down They can say it's cliché You won't know until you go and find out So, run, run, baby Nothing to lose Don't get hung up on these hometown roots Yeah, I hate to admit it but we both know that it's true Leaving looks good on you On you On you Leaving looks good on you [Verse 2] Yeah, you looked real good in the photos of us But you look so happy on a Greyhound bus Window seat, waving at me Through a cloud of dust But it tore me up saying [Chorus] Run, run, baby Out of this town If California's calling, go and chase it down They can say it's cliché You won't know until you go and find out So, run, run, baby Nothing to lose Don't get hung up on these hometown roots Yeah, I hate to admit it but we both know that it's true Leaving looks good on you Run, baby, run, run, baby On you Run, baby, run, run, baby On you Run, baby, run, run, baby Leaving looks good on you Run, baby, run, run, baby [Verse 3] Yeah, the hometown said that you're gonna go far And Hollywood said that you're gonna be a star And I know what I said in the karaoke bar But if you ever said you wanted back in my arms I'd say [Chorus] Run, run, baby Out of that town If California ain't where you wanna settle down They can say it's cliché You won't know until you go and find out So, run, run, baby Nothing to lose If you're still hung up on these hometown roots Show 'em all out there something I already knew Leaving looks good on you [Outro] Run, baby, run, run, baby On you Run, baby, run, run, baby On you Run, baby, run, run, baby Leaving looks good on you Run, baby, run, run, baby On you On you On you Leaving looks good on you
