Girl our mama's are best friends and so are we
The whole town was rooting for us like the home team
Most likely to settle down, plant a few roots real deep and let ‘em grow
We can’t stop this real world from spinning us
Your bright lights called, I don’t blame you for picking up
Your big dream bags are all packed up and ready to go
But I just need you to know
That I love you more than a California sunset
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet
More than a Sunday morning Lord turnin' some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound
Yeah, I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits the hook
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
I ain’t the runaway kind, I can’t change that
My heart’s stuck in these streets like the train tracks
City sky ain’t the same black
Ain't that a map dot shame, man, to think that
I love you more than a California sunset
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet
More than a Sunday morning Lord turning some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound
I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
Yeah, You got a wild in your eyes that I just wasn’t born with
I’m a same gas station cup of coffee in the mornin'
I need a house on the hill, girl, not in ‘em so hang onto these words
till them avenues help you forget ‘em
Cause I love you more than a California sunset
I love you more in a twenty dollar sun dress
Hate that loaded down car you got your keys in, girl
But I hate even more that you’re leaving
Cause I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
But that ain’t you and me so I guess I’ll just see you around
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
Love you more than my hometown
Love you more than my hometown
Love you more, baby, love you more
