Place I Know Lyrics


I laid my heart in a cherry box eight years ago
And I passed it to a girl that I love
Days went by nice and slow
Years went fast, that’s how they go
Ups and downs, highs and lows
Ebbs and flows, a few good shows

Blessed with one, blessed with two
The third one broke my heart in a thousand pieces
Thousand pieces
Fourth one’s here, thank you God
I don’t even wanna know the odds
Miracles can happen in our lives

I wish that I could shield them from the bumps on the road
At least I can show ’em to a place that I know

To find Jesus in that high, high place where I’ll lay my head
Where I’ll lay my head
Pick up your pieces, out beyond the wood line in the meadow
Out in the meadow
Way up on the mountain
Is that place I know

I’ll hold you close, hold you tight
Ain’t letting go of you tonight, my darlin’
Oh, my darlin’
On my knees, asking God
I’d love to know the reason of what you see in me
What you see in me

I wish that I could shield you from the bumps on the road
At least I can show you to a place that I know

To find Jesus in that high, high place where I’ll lay my head
Where I’ll lay my head
Pick up your pieces, out beyond the wood line in the meadow
Out in the meadow
Way up on the mountain
Way up on the mountain
Is that place I know

To find Jesus in that high, high place where I’ll lay my head
Where I’ll lay my head
Pick up your pieces, out beyond the wood line in the meadow
Out in the meadow
Way up on the mountain
Way up on the mountain
Way up on the mountain
Way up on the mountain
Is that place I know

Is that place I know
That place I know
