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 growingWe 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 hometownWe'll stand out in our front yard
Where we can finally breathe
If we find a little earth to stand on
Baby, you and meImagine Friday football games
Where everybody knows our names
They even stop to say hello
I bet they'll have a town parade
And kids selling lemonade
Baby, don't you wanna go?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 hometownWe'll stand out in our front yard
Where we can finally breathe
If we find a little earth to stand on
Baby, you and meI don't want to face tomorrow
If we don't leave this place tonight
I've never been more sure
Of anything in my lifeAll we need's a little earth to stand on
Plant our hearts on solid ground
Turn the lights out on this city
Wake up in a new hometownStand out in our front yard
Where we can finally breathe
If we find a little earth to stand on
Baby, you and meNeed a little earth to stand on
Plant our hearts on solid ground
Turn the lights out on this city
Wake up in a new hometownWe'll dance out in our front yard
Underneath a maple tree
If we find a little earth to stand on
Baby, you and me
