Charles Wesley Godwin - Temporary Town lyrics
[Charles Wesley Godwin - Temporary Town lyrics]
There's a tide turning in
This temporary town
Winds of change cut east blowing
Dust up off the ground
I'm all burnt out on heartland skies
And dreams of swinging on our
Porch ganderin' ridge lines
There's a mighty mountain of
Bills on the floor
If it builds up any higher they'll
Be bursting through the door
Tear down these walls let me
Shiver in the wind i'll take it as a sign
Well-timed and consider it God-sent
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
I can picture it now a
White house in a clearing
Humming a bluebird song til the
Days we're hard of hearing
Ancient blue ridges just like big old fences
Shelter from the world keeping
Senseless at a distance
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'till
There's no turning around
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
This temporary town
Winds of change cut east blowing
Dust up off the ground
I'm all burnt out on heartland skies
And dreams of swinging on our
Porch ganderin' ridge lines
There's a mighty mountain of
Bills on the floor
If it builds up any higher they'll
Be bursting through the door
Tear down these walls let me
Shiver in the wind i'll take it as a sign
Well-timed and consider it God-sent
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
I can picture it now a
White house in a clearing
Humming a bluebird song til the
Days we're hard of hearing
Ancient blue ridges just like big old fences
Shelter from the world keeping
Senseless at a distance
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'till
There's no turning around
I could take your hand and
Leap across the border
Give a little gas and ride
Off towards higher ground
Make a piece of heaven near
Some old forgotten town
And let the world pass by
'til there's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
Let the world pass by 'til
There's no turning around
