Skye Peterson - Suburbs lyrics

Greenville brought the grey skies and it
Rained like it was springtime
The world, it bears a beauty on it's back
I love the Carolinas
The Blue Ridge and the pines
But Tennessee is all I've ever had

'Cause somewhere in the suburbs
There's a little gravel drive
And a home with the heart of a mother
Just waiting there inside

(Ooh ooh ooh) she wait's, she wait's for us
(Ooh ooh ooh)

Each day we're out 'till midnight
I can picture the home on the hillside
See her open door and open arms
Oh, and yearning is a holy thing
It's the imprint of eternity
A sense that there is somewhere we belong

'Cause somewhere in the suburbs
She's beckoning us home
And I can't help but love her
I'm a child she calls her own

(Ooh ooh ooh) she wait's, she wait's for us
(Ooh ooh ooh)

She wait's for us

I heard about the pilgrims when
They journeyed to Jerusalem
And sang about that city far away
Deep inside this soul of mine
I ache to see those city lights
Feel that holy rest beyond the gate

'Cause somewhere there's a Kingdom
With a door that's open wide
And a Father who's been waiting
For His child to come inside
And the Kingdom's come in the suburbs
In the home, in the heart of a mother, 'cause
She lives the love of the Father
Who wait's for us

(Ooh ooh ooh) he wait's, He wait's for us
(Ooh ooh ooh) he wait's, He wait's for us
(Ooh ooh ooh)
Yeah, He wait's, He wait's for us
