Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
She wanted to move She wanted to try something new She wanted to live in San Francisco In a place with a view She wanted the sound She wanted the life all around She wanted the fun and the action of a livelier town But he, he would still disagree 'Cause he loved the stillness of morning And the wind in the trees He needed the stars He needed to say, "This is ours" And look at a field and a pasture And a road with no cars He wanted a farm He wanted a horse in a barn He wanted a life in the country, far from the town So they, they chose to stay They found a place where they hoped They might both have their way Surprise! But that compromise was a life in the suburbs That they both could despise With nothing of either, too much of each The things that they hoped for were both out of reach No land for the garden, too far from the stores No new folk to talk to, loud neighbors next door Though traffic was endless, no one stepped outside An outpost of loners who've come there to hide Why they stayed, all those years The answer can't be found But there they were, there they fought And there they stood their ground in my hometown In my own hometown Wonder what I've made that far In my own hometown In my own hometown
