On Common Ground
Verse 1
A little bit of give—little bit of take
Little bit of “honey please, we’re gonna be late”
Little bit of silence when I’ve done wrong
Little bit of “yes, dear” man those two words are gold
Verse 2
And if it’s a long night with a little bit of gin
Then I’ll call her up—she’ll come get me again
There’ll be some fighting, then sweet love
It’s been this way since I can recall
Chorus
We may not be in picture perfect harmony
We may not be in tune with high society
But we got each other’s back
Who can put a price on that
We built our lives in this town
On common ground
Verse 3
Little bit of love you when she walks by
She still turns my heart upside down
I’ll go on believing in her smile so sweet
‘Cause she don’t look that way at no one but me
Chorus
We may not be in picture perfect harmony
We may not be in tune with high society
But we got each other’s back
Who can put a price on that
We built our lives in this town
On common ground
Bridge
It’s not about what you want or what you need
Long as you got someone back at home that you can please
Chorus
We may not be in picture perfect harmony
We may not be in tune with high society
But we got each other’s back
Who can put a price on that
We built our lives in this town
On common ground
