Mike Baker - Common Ground Lyrics

In this town we've seen years come and go
Different faces, stories we don't know
But when the rains fall or the winds get wild
It's hand in hand, neighbor and child

We don't pray the same or see eye to eye
Some kneel at dawn, some wait for night
But when the hard times come around
We're all together on common ground

Common ground where hearts collide
Where we set our fears and pride aside
Lift your voice, let's sing it loud
We're all one family on common ground

Around the fire we share our tales
Of broken dreams and love that prevails
Laughter echoes, stories blend
In the warmth of kin and friend

Can you feel it, the bridge we build
In every song, in every field
If we don't rise, if we don't try
We lose what brings us side by side

Common ground where hearts collide
Where we set our fears and pride aside
Lift your voice, let's sing it loud
We're all one family on common ground

It's not about who's wrong or right
It's in the love we share tonight
In every face, in every town
There's joy and strength on common ground

So here's to the hope we share today
In every smile along the way
Common ground, we're here to stay
Together as one, come what may

Common ground, we're here to stay
Together as one, come what may
