  • I've been thinkin' 'bout you leavin'
    So I picked up my guitar
    Played what I was feelin'
    I emptied out my heart
    Bet you thought it'd be a sad one
    About you bein' gone
    But this ain't that song

    Wonderin' why you left me
    Been wonderin' where you're at
    Hopin' that you'll text me
    And prayin' you'll come back
    I guess that's where I could be
    Oh, but please don't take this wrong, huh
    This ain't that song

    This is you go your way, I'll go mine
    We're gonna be better off, gonna be fine
    Keep chasin' your life down the highway
    Keep it real, live it up like it's Friday
    Wish I could tell you, girl
    My front porch light's still on
    But this ain't that song
    No, no

    Well, this town is like a prison
    All I see is you
    I can't ever see me
    Findin' someone new
    Yeah, I tried to hold another
    Felt nothin' but alone
    Naw, this ain't that song

    This is you go your way, I'll go mine
    We're gonna be better off, gonna be fine
    Keep chasin' your life down the highway
    Keep it real, live it up like it's Friday
    Wish I could tell you, girl
    My front porch light's still on
    But this ain't that song

    That tries to make you cry
    Make you feel bad about your goodbye
    This ain't some prideful heart just talkin'
    Girl, keep walkin' (girl, keep walkin')

    You go your way, I'll go mine
    We're gonna be better off, gonna be fine
    Keep chasin' your life down the highway
    Keep it real, live it up like it's Friday
    Wish I could tell you, girl
    My front porch light's still on
    But this ain't that song

    Mmm
    Been thinkin' 'bout you leavin', huh
    So I picked up my guitar Writer/s: Casey Beathard, Payton Smith
