The sun sets 'round the corner The postman knows your name There's a church, a farm shop And a place to kill your brain Well, I was staring out the window Thinking lately I have found That there's big things in this small town The kids are starting school And the parents shed a tear He moved from the city With dreams of brewing his own beer And all the fields have lost their flowers And the leaves are turning brown Big things, small town All the cars are passing through Probably write it off like debt but They'll never know the things that makes it what it is All the hearts that it's broken And the footprints on the ground The turning nothing into something If I know one thing it's I have found That's there's big things in this small town There's two shadows in the distance They're walking, holding hands He leans in for the first kiss And he changes all her plans And that's the spot they'll remember They'll tell their grandkids about And how there's big things in this small town All the cars that pass right through Well, they never pass again 'Cause they're probably on their way To somewhere the same to them All the fires that have started And the ones that burnt right out All the nothings and the somethings If I know one thing it's I have found That there's big things in this small town Big things in this small town Big things in this small town
