We go there
Runnin’ from the empty lookin’ for a little light
Just another face in the crowd of the brokenhearted
So we dance and we sing and pretend that we’re all alright
But we’re not and we know it
But we won’t show it
There’s one on every corner
You ain’t gotta look too hard
And those doors’ll swing wide open
No matter who you are
It’s where Jesus knows to go
To find the sinners and the saints
It’s where you hit your knees
Say a prayer and take a drink
‘Cause we’re all hurtin’
And we’re all searchin’
In bars and churches
Chasin’ lonely
Drownin’ out the devil with the devil tryin’ to drag you down
Pourin’ out your heart to the ear of a perfect stranger
Hopin’ that they’ll listen that they’ll care they’ll give a damn
But they just want the same thing too
They came here just like you
Yeah, there’s one on every corner
You ain’t gotta look too hard
And those doors’ll swing wide open
No matter who you are
It’s where Jesus knows to go
To find the sinners and the saints
It’s where you hit your knees
Say a prayer and take a drink
‘Cause we’re all hurtin’
And we’re all searchin’
In bars and churches
There’s one on every corner
You ain’t gotta look too hard
And those doors’ll swing wide open
No matter who you are
It’s where Jesus knows to go
To find the sinners and the saints
It’s where you hit your knees
Say a prayer and take a drink
‘Cause we’re all hurtin’
And we’re all searchin’
In bars and churches
