Lake City Lyrics - Bebo Norman

Well even in the light of day 

We somehow slipped away 

Into the city down by the lake. 

And just beyond the crowded streets 

We found a place to meet 

Where the grass was greener 

And how we did sing beneath our God. 

(Chorus) 

And the measure of that place 

Was the pleasure on your face 

As the music starts to rise. 

And the sun did fall 

But when the melody was young 

Until the singers all were sung 

The Maker of the skies 

Well He just smiled on. 

And the move was fine. 

Beneath the mountain city walls 

It was a picture of us all 

And our hearts were laughing 

As the band did play. 

Until the music took our feet 

To the motion of the street 

This grass was bluer 

And how we did dance 

On the yellow lines. 

(Chorus) 

When the darkness finally fell 

The mountains cast their spell 

And we were together 

With our eyes upheld 

To the passion in the sky 

Our God and country light 

It's an endless matter. 

And how we did shine, 

How we did shine beneath that light. 

Beneath that light 

Beneath that night. 

(Chorus)
