Some folks live by a big blue ocean
Some folks live in the center of town
Some folks live without any notion
Me, I'm just tryin' to live your love down
I'm just tryin' to live your love down
I'm not lookin' for another
I'm just lookin' to get long gone
To someplace that no sweetheart has discovered
Someplace where memories don't hold on
Someplace where memories don't hold on

[Chorus:]
Somewhere the ties won't bind me
Someplace where love can't find me
Somewhere the past's behind me
Someplace where love can't find me
Someplace where love can't find me

It's the same old sad situation
Fall in love, and it breaks your heart
Surely there's somewhere in this great nation
Where no one comes together just to fall apart
Where no one comes together just to fall apart

[Chorus]

I'm getting nowhere
I'm getting nowhere
And gettin' over - it is getting so hard
I want to go there
I want to go there
Before they throw my heart in a junkyard
'Cause I don't have another love in me
Can't even let the last one go
Before I do it again, please send me
Up to Nova Scotia down to Mexico
Up to Nova Scotia down to Mexico

[Chorus]
