This Used To Be Our Town
Jason McCoy Lyrics

Drivin' by the drive in movies
As I drove past the drive-in movies, I was reminded of the good times I spent with Suzie.

Started thinkin' 'bout me and Suzie
These memories led me to contemplate the relationship that Suzie and I had.

And how we used to spend those Saturday nights
Our Saturday nights used to be filled with fun and adventure.

Later on we'd be out cruisin'
As the night progressed, we would drive around aimlessly.

Dashboard drummin' to our favorite music
We would play our favorite tunes so loud that we could feel the music in our bones.

Kissin' on the porch till her mama flashed the light
We would steal a kiss on the front porch until Suzie's mother would signal that it was time to come inside.

We had the world in the palm of our hands
At that time, we had everything we could ever want or need.

I guess fate had other plans
However, fate had something else in store for us.

This used to be our town
This place used to belong to both Suzie and me.

There wasn't a back road we hadn't been down
We had explored every corner of this town together.

Every inch is still sacred ground
Despite the changes that have taken place, every part of this town still has meaning to me.

Suzie cried the day that I left for college
When I left for college, Suzie couldn't help but cry.

Didn't give a damn about higher knowledge
At the time, learning didn't matter much to me.

All she really wanted was a family
What Suzie really wanted was to start a family and build a home.

When I got back there was nothin' I could do
When I returned, it was already too late to make things right.

Her first baby was almost two
Suzie had moved on and started a family without me.

I guess she's doin' fine without me
Suzie was able to move on without me and find happiness on her own.

Now some thing's change and some thing's don't
Although some things may have changed, others have stayed the same.

Some thing's wait and some thing's won't
Some things are worth waiting for, while others may never come to fruition.

Now I'm driving these streets and her sweet memory
As I drive through town, the memories of Suzie flood my mind.

Still makes my heart pound
Even after all this time, my feelings for her are still strong.

This used to be our town
This place used to be a symbol of our love and relationship.

This used to be our town
Even though it's been a while, this place still holds a special place in my heart.
