The Same Song
We were sitting in our rooms with our headphones on
We were reading through jackets in the back of the car
We were picking out notes and learning the parts
To different radios we were singing along
It was the same song
In different towns we had our roots
From Chesapeake to Baton Rouge
Yeah but when the piper played his tune
We all left the homes we knew
And followed the same song
It was the same song
And one by one we landed here
And found that we were not alone
'Cause we listened to each other sing
The same song
We could sit around for hours just talking about
How we all wore that record out
How the change that it made was so profound
We're still trying to find that sound
Even now it's the same song
And one by one we landed here
And found that we were not alone
'Cause we listened to each other sing
The one about love, it's the one about hope
It's the one that makes it easy to believe
It's the one about the ache and I'm longing for home
It's the one about you and me
We got valleys yet to cross
Yeah but we can make it holding on
To the common threat that binds us all
'Cause the line that's written on our hearts
It's the same song
It's the same song
Oh it's the same song
We're singing the same song
(So what about love? so what about hope? so what about love?)
