Lost This Town
Love Found, Town Lost: Landon Wall's Tale of Heartbreak
Lyrics
I was one of half of the senior class
I was part of half of the senior class.
It was a long shot but I had to ask
It was a risky attempt, but I asked anyway.
I was sure that you'd said no
I was confident you would reject me.
And hell, I still don't know
I still don't understand why you agreed.
Why you said yes to that window table
You agreed to sit at the window table at Huddle House.
At the Huddle House off Main and Maple
Specifically at Main and Maple streets.
And that was just the start
That marked the beginning of our relationship.
Of how a boy won a good girl's heart
It narrates how a boy captured a good girl's heart.
Then lost this town and the Friday night lights
I lost the town and the memories under Friday night lights.
Every old dirt road every Carolina mile
Every old dirt road and every mile in Carolina remind me.
I wish I could un-drive
Regret wishing I could erase the drives between our houses.
Between your house and mine
Reflecting on the journey from your house to mine.
That Appalachian sky God painted blue
Describing the beauty of the Appalachian sky painted by God.
He can have that back 'cause I lost that too
I am willing to let go of that sky since I lost you.
The minute you said goodbye girl I knew
Immediately after you said goodbye, I sensed the loss.
I lost this town to you
Overall, I lost this town because of you.
Back when I won that battle of the bands
Recalling the victory in the battle of the bands.
You were front row center waving your hands
You were enthusiastically supporting me in the audience.
Screaming out my name
You were cheering and screaming my name.
Feels like yesterday
It feels like the excitement happened just yesterday.
Our first kiss in the mini golf parking lot
Remembering our first kiss in a mini-golf parking lot.
Right next to the old rundown K-Mart
Near the old, rundown K-Mart where emotions were shared.
Where I told you I loved you
Expressing love for the first time at that location.
Man I wish I could un-love you
Wishing I could undo the love I felt for you.
I lost this town and the Friday night lights
Reiterating the loss of the town and Friday night lights.
Every old dirt road every Carolina mile
Every road and mile in Carolina is a reminder of the past.
I wish I could un-drive
Wishing to erase the memories of driving between our homes.
Between your house and mine
Reflecting on the blue Appalachian sky, willing to let it go.
That Appalachian sky God painted blue
God's creation can be relinquished because of the loss.
He can have that back 'cause I lost that too
Realizing the town and the sky were lost with you.
The minute you said goodbye girl I knew
The moment you said goodbye marked the awareness of loss.
I lost this town to you
The town was surrendered and lost because of our separation.
And I ain't ever coming back
Deciding not to return to the town due to the emotional burden.
'Cause I don't think I can handle that
Expressing the difficulty of coping with the memories.
I lost this town and the Friday night lights
Reiterating the loss of the town and Friday night lights.
Every old dirt road every Carolina mile
Every road and mile in Carolina continues to remind.
I wish I could un-drive
Desiring to erase the memories of driving between our homes.
Between your house and mine
Reflecting on the blue Appalachian sky and being willing to let it go.
That Appalachian sky God painted blue
God's creation can be relinquished because of the loss.
He can have that back 'cause I lost that too
Realizing the town and the sky were lost with you.
The minute you said goodbye girl I knew
The moment you said goodbye marked the awareness of loss.
I lost this town to you
The town was surrendered and lost because of our separation.
I lost this town to you
Conclusively stating the loss of the town due to the farewell.
