Head Start On A Heartbreak Songtext
Was your Samsonite packed up tight in the back of your mind?
Was your Cherokee facing towards the street when you parked in my drive?
Was your last shot your first moving on 'round?
Were you reaching for your phone for a rebound?
Did you run through "It wasn't you. It was me" 'bout a hundred times?
Kinda feels like
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Was your Cherokee facing towards the street when you parked in my drive?
Was your last shot your first moving on 'round?
Were you reaching for your phone for a rebound?
Did you run through "It wasn't you. It was me" 'bout a hundred times?
Kinda feels like
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Middle of nowhere, America
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet
Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, when did you know?
How long did you hold it on the tip of your tongue?
Was the last time we kissed even real, or were you already done?
Yeah, I know somebody's gotta take the bullet
And I know somebody's gotta pull it
I could see it in your eyes, you're halfway there
Girl, it just ain't fair
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Middle of nowhere, America
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
I ain't saying you ain't breaking, I bet some nights you are
'Cause moving on ain't easy, but you're through the hardest part
Oh, the hardest part
The hardest part
Oh, you know it ain't easy
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Middle of nowhere, America
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet
Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet
Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, when did you know?
How long did you hold it on the tip of your tongue?
Was the last time we kissed even real, or were you already done?
Yeah, I know somebody's gotta take the bullet
And I know somebody's gotta pull it
I could see it in your eyes, you're halfway there
Girl, it just ain't fair
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Middle of nowhere, America
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
I ain't saying you ain't breaking, I bet some nights you are
'Cause moving on ain't easy, but you're through the hardest part
Oh, the hardest part
The hardest part
Oh, you know it ain't easy
You got a head start on a heartbreak
Yeah, you jumped the gun, hit the ground running
And I'm still stuck in place in a hotel room
Middle of nowhere, America
You got a fast car, already so far ahead
And I ain't even turned the key yet
Right from the beginning, had no chance of winning the race
'Cause you got a head start on a heartbreak
