Too young to understand why she went away
Too old to admit that I wouldn't be okay
So I hardened my heart that day
I wiped the feelings off my face
She said it was her and it wasn't my fault
His eyes told me we were through and he'd be okay
I just looked down as my true love walked away
And it hardened my heart that day
But I wiped the feelings off my face
'Cause when somebody leaves
But I will stay strong and I will stay busy and
I won't lean too much to your side
And in July we'll call it freedom
And one day this sheen that covers my eyes
It'll fall drip down by the wayside
This town was feeling so small and I needed space
So I packed my things in my blue suitcase and I drove away
But it hardened my heart that day
When they wiped their feelings off their faces
But it wasn't their fault
