Josh Grider Band - City of Crosses Lyrics

I WAS BORN IN THE CITY OF CROSSES
THE DESERT SPRING SUN SHOWED ME MY FIRST DAYS
THE HIGHWAY RAN RIGHT THROUGH THE CITY OF CROSSES
AND IN THE SPRING OF MY EIGHTEENTH YEAR I FOLLOWED IT AWAY
THE HIGHWAY TOOK ME TO STRANGE AND WONDERFUL PLACES
SOME OF WHICH I GUESS ILL NEVER TELL
THEY TOLD ME HEAVEN IS WHERE I WANNA END UP
AND GOOD INTENTIONS PAVE THE ROAD TO HELL

CHORUS:

TAKE ME BACK HOME CITY OF CROSSES
ITS BEEN TOO LONG SINCE IVE BEEN DOWN THERE
TAKE ME BACK HOME CITY OF CROSSES
CITY OF CROSSES I WANNA BE THERE

MY FAMILY WAITS FOR ME, THERE IN THE CITY OF CROSSES
ITS BEEN SO LONG I HOPE THEY REMEMBER ME
JUST A FEW MORE MILES UNTIL I REACH THE VALLEY
LIGHTS OF THE CITY SHINE A PATH FOR ME

REPEAT CHORUS

YOU DON'T KNOW, WHAT YOU LEAVE UNTIL YOU'VE LEFT IT
THE CITY OF CROSSES I ALWAYS HAD TO BEAR
BUT IN THE CROSSES YOU CAN FIND REDEMPTION
I HOPE I FIND THAT WAITING FOR ME THERE

REPEAT CHORUS
