Lyrics
Some people hate simplicity,
But where I'm from it's the path to serenity,
There must be something in the water,
Cuz everywhere you go you're greeted with a smile
And the ones that you love you keep them close
Cuz they're the ones who remind you of what really matters most
Oh I have lived the city life,
And for a while I was blinded by those city lights
But the air is so much cleaner and the world is so much sweeter
In my town
In my town
Spending the summers at the lake
And every Friday there's a football game
And the whole town is there, to cheer the team along,
Just like a family
Cuz the ones that you love you keep them close
Cuz they're the ones who remind you of what really matters most
Oh I have lived the city life,
And for a while I was blinded by those city lights
But the birds fly so much higher
And the stars shine so much brighter
In my town
In my town
In my town
In my town
And the ones that you love you keep them close
Cuz they're the ones who remind you of what really matters most
Oh I have lived the city life,
And for a while I was blinded by those city lights
But the blue skies are so much bluer, and the true love is so much truer
In my town
And the air is so much cleaner
And the world is so much sweeter
In my town
