New Hometown

Every day we walk right past
 All the concrete and the glass
 I don't know where we're going
 I hardly ever see your face
 And there's not enough space
 For all the love we should be growing
 We just need a little earth to stand on
 Plant our hearts on solid ground
 Turn the lights out on this city
 And wake up in a new hometown
 We'll stand out in our front yard
 Where we can finally breathe
 If we find a little earth to stand on
 Baby you and me
 Imagine Friday football games
 Where everybody knows our names
 They even stop to say hello
 I bet they'll have a town parade
 Kids selling lemonade
 Baby, don't you wanna go, ohhhh
 We just need a little earth to stand on
 Plant our hearts on solid ground
 Turn the lights out on this city
 And wake up in a new hometown
 We'll stand out in our front yard
 Where we can finally breathe
 If we find a little earth to stand on
 Baby you and me
 I don't want to face tomorrow
 If we don't leave this place tonight
 I've never been more sure
 Of anything in my life
 All we need's a little earth to stand on
 Plant our hearts on solid ground
 Turn the lights out on this city
 And wake up in a new hometown
 Stand out in our front yard
 Where we can finally breathe
 If we find a little earth to stand on
 Baby you and me
 Need a little earth to stand on
 Plant our hearts on solid ground
 Turn the lights out on this city
 And wake up in a new hometown
 We'll dance out in our front yard
 Underneath a maple tree
 If we find a little earth to stand on
