Lyrics

we're not in kansas anymore

it seems like forever
since we left everyone we knew
we wanted something better
than what our small town could do
and so we made our way
out to the western shore
and when we arrived, i heard you say
"we're not in kansas anymore."

we both pursued our separate dreams
saw it all pay off in time
but somewhere through the years, it seems
we let passion fall behind
now i know we can't go back again
to how we were before
we've lost the love we had then
we're not in kansas anymore

we're not in kansas anymore
we're not those same two sweethearts
who met down at the corner store
so i'll remember how it was
the love we had before
but boy
we're not in kansas anymore

you say we'll stay in touch
we've always been so close
but darlin' that may be too much
'cause it's you i'll miss the most
so i'll think about that small town
far from this golden shore
where we woke up one day and found
we're not in kansas anymore

we're not in kansas anymore
we're not those same two sweethearts
who met down at the corner store
so i'll remember how it was
the love we had before
'cause boy
we're not in kansas anymore ?
somewhere over that rainbow
there's a love just like before
but boy
we're not in kansas anymore...
