This Town Songtext
von Clare Bowen, Charles Esten

Hold on until the feelin′ is so strong
Until the ground that you walk on
Is where you stand.
This dream, it heals and it haunts me
It's tempted and taught me who I am.

This town ain′t yours
And this town ain't mine.
We all come here with a light in our eyes
Some will burn out,
Some will burn bright.
Some learn to fly,
Some will run for their lives
In this town,
In this town.


Strangers, we're nothin′ but strangers
Putting our hearts in danger
For the song we sing.
I′ve seen the devil inside me
But I won't let it guide me
Or take my wings.

This town ain′t yours
And this town ain't mine.
We all come here with a light in our eyes
Some will burn out, (some will burn out)
Some will burn bright. (some will burn bright)
Some learn to fly,
Some will run for their lives
In this town,
In this town.


This town ain′t yours
And it surely ain't mine.
We all come here with the light in our eyes
Some will burn out,
Some will burn bright.
Some learn to fly,
Some will run for their lives
In this town,
In this town. (In this town)
(In this town)
In this town
