Well, it coulda been Vegas
Or somewhere way out west
Coulda been somewhere
with your heart just beatin’ back on my chest
And hearin’ you say we’re right

Coulda been in Nashville
With some friends of mine singin’ my blues
Instead of way out there
With not a **** thing to do
But now it’s over
And you don’t love me anymore

Why Indiana
I still can’t believe
You took forever and forgot about me
I know it hurt, but it hurts so bad I laugh
Just to keep from dyin’

Why Indiana
With grass just as green
Why not the beaches
with some teal home scenes
Wish you were running
Down my side of the track
But now it’s ever-clear to see
That we’ll never make it back

Why Indiana
On a cleared-sky day
Why not those mountains
With a pourin’ rain
Wanna hear your voice
on the other end of the phone
but now you’re way long gone
