[Verse 1] The screen door sighs at five You step out in that faded dress Sun hangs low on Elm Road Turning dust to amber dress Iâm parked by the feed store sign With your name on my last text You smile like you knew Iâd come Like this old town knew us next [Pre-Chorus] And the sky goes soft Over pickup hoods and hay I forget the week When you look my way [Chorus] Small town love, hold tight Right here in the fading light Small town love, feel true The whole wide world is me and you (Us and you) Small town love, stay near Till the last store shuts down out here Small town love, thatâs enough For a heart like mine, small town love [Verse 2] We walk past the barber shop Past the church with the broken bell You laugh at my worn-out boots Say they wear my stories well Your hand finds mine so easy Like itâs always been that way Kids on bikes cut through the square While the pavement drinks the day [Pre-Chorus] And the porch lamps blink One by one on Maple Lane I donât need much When you say my name [Chorus] Small town love, hold tight Right here in the fading light Small town love, feel true The whole wide world is me and you (Us and you) Small town love, stay near Till the last store shuts down out here Small town love, thatâs enough For a heart like mine, small town love [Bridge] If this road runs out And the county line moves on Iâll still find home In the way you lean at dawn In a little front-porch kiss In a June that lingers long Nothing fancy, nothing loud Just where we both belong [Chorus] Small town love, hold tight Right here in the fading light Small town love, feel true The whole wide world is me and you (Us and you) Small town love, stay near Till the last store shuts down out here Small town love, thatâs enough For a heart like mine, small town love
