Maren Morris Circles Around This Town

AlphabetLyrics.com

I swear I don't know how I trusted
A montero with the ac busted
A couple bad demos on a burned cd
Would take me all the way to tennessee.

I showed up to the new apartment
First month's, last month's, two deposits
Hadn't heard the sound of a door slam yet
Thank god I was an optimist.

I drove circles around this town
Trying to write circles around this town
Trying to say something with meaning, something worth singing about
I've been kind and I've been ruthless
Yeah, I got here but the truth is
Thought when I hit it, it'd all look different
But I still got the pedal down
Driving circles around this town.

So many times I thought about leaving
Got my ass kicked trying to compete with
Everybody else's ones that got away
Hung around long enough to catch a break.

Couple hundred songs and the ones that finally worked
Was the one about a car and the one about a church
That I wrote.

Driving circles around this town
Trying to write circles around this town
Trying to say something with meaning, something worth singing about
I've been kind and I've been ruthless
Yeah, I got here but the truth is
Thought when I hit it, it'd all look different
But I still got the pedal down
Driving circles around this town
Driving circles around this town.

I drove circles around this town
Trying to write circles around this town
Trying to say something with meaning, something worth singing about
I've been kind and I've been ruthless
Yeah, I got here but the truth is
Thought when I hit it, it'd all look different
But I still got the pedal down
I still get lost, I still get found
Driving circles around this town
Oh, yeah...
