Somewhere in our town the lights go out

With firelight and candles we melt the cold

Somewhere in our town the sun beats down on an open field

Unbroken field, it warms the ground

So we lay down

Somewhere in our town

Somewhere in our town

In through the backdoor

Words fall away, down deep

Into the earth as it is

And my soul to keep

La la la la la la la la

Ooh

Somewhere in our town a child writes her own book

And she knows what she'll find

Somewhere in our town with open heads, unbroken heads

We work to bring the fever down

Somewhere in our town

Somewhere in our town

In through the backdoor

Words fall away, down deep

Into the earth as it is

And my soul to keep

La la la la la la la la

Ooh

Somewhere in our town
