This Town

I don't want to hide this love anymore
Too many lies have been told
Now's the to show the world our love
When other love has gone cold
And I don't give a damn
Whatever anyone might say
And it's not gonna be
A love that dare not speak itÂ's name
I don't want to live a lie anymore
Too many lies have gone down
I've made excuse for myself before
Afraid to make decisions till now
And I don't give a damn
Whatever anyone might say
And it's not gonna be
A love that dare not speak it's name
Now is the time for something new
Now is the time for something new
Now is the time for me and you
I don't want to hide this love anymore
Too many lies have been told
Now's the to show the world our love
When other love has gone cold
And I don't give a damn
Anymore anyway
And it's not gonna be
A love that dare not speak it's name
Now is the time for something new
Now is the time for something new
Now is the time for me and you
And if life was like this everywhere
No more wars no greed I wouldn't care
I want all the best for people
Life should be like this for everyone
Then we wouldn't ever have to run
I want all the best for people
I guess I've found love for people
And if life was like this everywhere
In this town there'll be no sighing
No more wars no greed I wouldn't care
No more lying no more crying
I want all the best for people
I guess I've found love for people
Life should be like this for everyone
In this town there'll be no sighing
Then we wouldn't ever have to run
I want all the best for people
No more lying no more crying
