I heard a place not too far from here
is handing out answers
about why we are here
and itand's a small town in a small world
and the congregationand's small too
but somehow i think theyand're telling the truth
And in the same small town there is a girl
sheand's a good looker but sheand's mad at the world
and sheand's wondering about tomorrow and why sheand's here
sheand's sick and tired of using her sleeve to wipe her tears
And oh oh,
you can tell by the look thatand's in her eyes
sheand's not that well
sheand's wishinand' someone would close their eyes
and picture this for just a moment to theirselves
and oh, at least thatand's what they say
at least thats what they
thats what they say
thats what they say
at least thats whats they say
She sits alone
sheand's a re-run queen
the sun shines through her window
enough to make out her figurine
the neighbours look at her strange
and'cuz sheand's lived there her whole life
and they still donand't know her name
she likes to keep to herself
and'cuz she canand't find nobody else
And you can tell by the look thatand's in her eyes
sheand's not that well
sheand's wishing someone would close their eyes
and picture this for just a moment to theirselves
And at least thatand's what they say, yeah
at least thatand's what they
thatand's what they say
thatand's what they say
and at least thatand's what they say,
yeah, yeah
what they say (x4)
and i donand't care
what they say (x4)
and i donand't care
what they say (x4)
and i donand't care
nooo....
She wanders through the town
to find this place sheand's heard about
thinking maybe they can figure out whatand's wrong, ohhh
they greet her with a smile
saying theyand've been waitinand' quite some while
just to let her know sheand's worth more than sheand's ever dreamed of
And her heart opens wide
and for the first time in her life
she feels the touch of jesus deep inside, ohhh
she wonders what went wrong
in a town where nothingand's going on
and thinks of all the others that she knows
And sheand's sad (x9)
wanna leave out her name (x7)
nooo (x7)
