Halfway to Carolina

Fell for a girl from the sunshine state Then I packed my bags and I was on my way Love and lust were two different things That's a lesson that I learned the hard way Wasted time ain't time well spent I dealt with more things than I'd like to admit But none of that seems to matter now 'Cuz I'm taking my heartbreak and leaving this town And I'm gone, and I ain't ever coming back I'm moving on, a little further from my past I'm getting better every mile that I go Ill be halfway to Carolina Before she ever comes back home I worked forty hour weeks Just to come home and find her somewhere else Wondering what went wrong, where she'd gone And why im sitting here by myself Now all I've got is Jack and Jim After finding out that she's with him But none of that seems to matter now 'Cuz im on the road and she's at his house And I'm gone, and I ain't ever coming back I'm moving on, a little further from my past I'm getting better every mile that I go I'll be halfway to Carolina Before she ever comes back home All the miles of empty highway in between Woah, my memory is all she'll ever see When I wake up in the morning I know right where i'll be Ill be home, and I ain't ever going back And I moved on, and I'm so far from my past I got better every mile that I drove Ill be over her before she even knows Now I'm back in Carolina And she's just getting home
