Andy Gullahorn Village Lyrics

I see torches marching
Afraid of losing ground
To the right side of history
The statues coming down

I see anger driving straight into the crowd
And though it all feels too far gone to change
Where there is a will there is a way

It's gonna take a village
It's gonna take some time
It's gonna take the blood, sweat, and tears we're gonna cry
We'll face the night together until the morning comes around
It's gonna take a village
To bring love back to this town

I see water rising days after the storm
Cause we can't stand the pressure of the heavy reservoir
Now we knife off the drywall, start tearing up the floors
Strip it til the studs are all that stand
Cause if we're gonna build it back again

It's gonna take a village
It's gonna take some time
It's gonna take the blood, sweat, and tears we're gonna cry
We'll face the night together until the morning comes around
It's gonna take a village To bring love back to this town

I lay down my guns
Lay hate to rest
By taking a good hard look at the heart
In the center of my own chest

This side of the street
All the work is my own
Oh, but I don't have to walk it alone

No I turn to the gold rule
When I get stuck in my ways
When I look at the impasse
And start to lose faith

Every stranger is a neighbor
I just don't know his name
I have to love local
For the world to change

It's gonna take a village
It's gonna take some time
It's gonna take the blood, sweat, and tears we're gonna cry
We'll face the night together until the morning comes around
It's gonna take a village
To bring love back to this town

It's gonna take some time
And the blood, sweat and tears we're gonna cry
We'll face the night together til the morning comes around
It's gonna take a village
To bring love back to this town
