derek webb - gift shop lyrics

there was a hole in the ground where somebody found
a spark they believed could light up the world
soon the word, it got out and people circled around
they swore they could see the face of a girl
you love it when those tears roll down their cheeks

a little bit of hope behind a velvet rope
and a twinkle in the eye of a man
and then a dash of mystique till there’s a line down the street
oh, and you’vе got supply and demand
just pull the curtain back so they can’t see past
thе gift shop
oh, the gift shop
oh, when their praises ring they learn the songs they sing
down at the gift shop

now we gotta expand, grab a little more land
for today was born to us a business plan
we got a neon facade and a new parking lot
we got wax figurines of the lamb
but they weren’t made to stand up to the heat outside

the gift shop
oh, the gift shop
oh, even wise men & kings get the gifts they bring
down at the gift shop

but when the curtain was torn, oh
you know it wasn’t to show that there something there
oh no, it’s everywhere but the gift shop

oh, when their praises ring they learn the songs they sing
down at the gift shop
oh, even wise men & kings get the gifts they bring
down at the gift shop
i guess you cannot hold something you do not own
behind the gift shop
i guess you cannot hold something you do not own
behind the gift shop
i guess you cannot hold something you do not own
behind the gift shop
i guess you cannot hold something you do not own
behind the gift shop
