Lyrics

I heard a place not too far from here
Is handing out answers about why we are here
And it's a small town, in a small world
And the congregation's small too
But somehow I think they're telling the truth;
And in the same small town there is a girl
She's a good looker but she's mad at the world
And she's wonderin' about tomorrow and why she's here
And she's sick and tired of using her sleeve to wipe her tears

And you can tell by the look that's in her eyes she's not that well
She wishes someone would close their eyes
And picture this for just a moment to themselves;

At least that's what they say
At least that's what they, that's what they say
That's what they say
At least that's what they say;

She sits alone, she's a re-run queen
The sun shines through her window enough to make out her figurine;
Her neighbours look at her strange
'Cause she's lived there her whole life, and they still don't know her name;
She likes to keep to herself
'Cause she can't find nobody else;

Yeah, yeah, what they say, what they say, what they say, what they say
And I don't care, what they say, what they say, what they say, what they say
And I don't care;

She wanders through the town
To find this place she's heard about
Thinking maybe they can figure out what's wrong
They greet her with a smile
Say they've been waiting for quite some while
Just to let her know she's worth more than she'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
She wonders what went wrong
In a town where nothing's going on
And thinks of all the others that she knows;
And she said, and she said, and she said, and she said....
