Nashville Songtext / Lyric

On a crowded highway

Through a night alone

I was barely breathing

I was crawling home

Well, it's quite not London

Or the south of France

Or an Asian Island

Or a second chance



Going back to Nashville

Thinking 'bout the whole thing

Guess you gotta run sometimes

Maybe I'm a fast train

Blowin' through a valley

Watching all my life go by






You're a distant memory

You're an exit sign

I was talking crazy

On the drivers side

And I know I hurt you

But I can't confess

Was that blood or a wine stain

On your wedding dress



Going back to Nashville

Laughing at a bad break

What's the use of wondering why?

Maybe I'm a storm front

Blowing through a valley

Tearing up a good July



And its safe and warm

Where nothing ever happens

Could it be so hard

To realign a star or two

Change a southern night for you



Going back to Nashville

I'm going back to Nashville

Going back to Naaaaahh...

Going back to Nashville

What's the use of wondering why?
