West Virginia Heat
Late night driving old cars
Through your neighborhood views
Parked out by the clifftops
Where no one else knew
Time stood still for hours
In that West Virginia Heat
Built our courage up all summer
For a moment so discreet and we were
Fresh in our youth
But we were out all on our own
Some of us went off to college
Some just left their homes
Too young to be trusted
We were still earning our scars
But we'd all come back for the holidays
Share our stories in the bars
The lights shined brighter
When you were around
Like a hurricane before me
Like a fire full of sound
You make me wanna never ever
Leave this town
But on the day I left I took a moment to rest
Then I packed up all my things and I got out
But I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back, come running back to you
Yeah I'd come running back, to all the things you'd say
Am I too smart to give you up
Or am I just too dumb to stay away
Sometimes this life has got me
Bursting at the seems
But I can't pay off all the credit cards
With the currency of dreams
So I took the job with benefits
And forty hours a week
Now my weekends they don't matter much
No my weekends they don't matter much
Some days I try to remember
When I'm feeling incomplete
About the clifftops where you kissed me
And that West Virginia Heat
All my best friends from high school
I barely talk to
But its not that we don't want to
No its not that we don't want to
The lights shined brighter
When you were around
Like a hurricane before me
Like a fire full of sound
You make me wanna never ever
Leave this town
But on the day I left I took a moment to rest
Then I packed up all my things and I got out
But I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back, come running back to you
Yeah I'd come running back, to all the things you'd say
Am I too smart to give you up
Or am I just too dumb to stay away
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
Through your neighborhood views
Parked out by the clifftops
Where no one else knew
Time stood still for hours
In that West Virginia Heat
Built our courage up all summer
For a moment so discreet and we were
Fresh in our youth
But we were out all on our own
Some of us went off to college
Some just left their homes
Too young to be trusted
We were still earning our scars
But we'd all come back for the holidays
Share our stories in the bars
The lights shined brighter
When you were around
Like a hurricane before me
Like a fire full of sound
You make me wanna never ever
Leave this town
But on the day I left I took a moment to rest
Then I packed up all my things and I got out
But I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back, come running back to you

I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
I'd come running back, come running back to you
I'd come running back
