lyrics

Yeah I was born here, guess I’ll live here all my life
Sat right here in this booth at senior prom
Made that satin dress myself, you can prob'ly tell
But I felt like something special with it on

That boy said he loved me sitting right where you are now
Swore he was gonna get us both away
Well he got away alright, and I’m here every night
Making tips that I spent yesterday

But I’ll pour comfort in your cup
Hear your story though you’re only passing through
Sometimes it’s almost enough
To know that everybody feels the way I do

I used to tell myself I'd turn around some night
And see him smiling while the jukebox played our songs
But I knew better than that, he was never coming back
So I buckled up my heart and carried on

But I’ll pour comfort in your cup
And hear your story though you’re only passing through
Sometimes it’s almost enough
To know that everybody feels the way I do

You know, that boy called just the other day
Said I was his one chance to get love right
I told him he coulda tried that line
On the girl he left behind
But he ain't gonna find her here tonight

But it was comfort in my cup
And it doesn't even matter if it's true
Sometimes it’s almost enough
To know that everybody feels the way I do

Yeah, sometimes it’s almost enough
To know that everybody feels the way I do
Yeah I was born here, guess I’ll live here all my life
