sara evans - new hometown lyrics

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

[chorus:]
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

[repeat chorus]

[bridge:]
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
baby you and me
