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.
