Thistle Town
by Glen Hofbauer

Take me to a meadow where I can find some solitude
Wash me in crystal waters so my soul can be renewed

I can show you there’s safe passage for your heart while in my care
I will take you on a journey where heartache can be repaired

Too many briars and brambles in these streets dragging us down
Let’s break free from thorns that sting, and cling
In Thistle Town
Not stickin’ ‘round Thistle Town

Hold me when I tremble say there’s nothing for me to fear
And I will listen closely when you whisper in my ear

I can teach you about the heavens in a brilliant southern sky
And you can sleep deeply when I sing you a lullaby

Too many briars and brambles in these streets dragging us down
Let’s break free from thorns that sting, and cling
In Thistle Town
Not stickin’ ‘round Thistle Town

So take my hand and follow me
Far from these crowded city streets
Where I know we can’t find
Our very own peace of mind

They can’t keep us down
No, we won’t be bound
To Thistle Town

Too many briars and brambles in these streets dragging us down
Let’s break free from thorns that sting, and cling
In Thistle Town
Not stickin’ ‘round Thistle Town
Not stickin’ ‘round Thistle Town
