City Springs District: The Table is Set

Lyrics

Sun goes down on Roswell Road.
The day lets out its breath.
Over by the City Green, the lights come on,
And you can feel what's next.
A low hum, a rising laugh...

The glass walls glow from the inside out.
The kitchens hit their stride.
Every patio door is thrown wide open now,
Nowhere left to hide.
The whole town's reflected in the windows,
Watching the show begin.
Someone finds a table, pulls a chair out,
Lets the evening in.

Yeah, the table is set for Sandy Springs tonight.
The linen's crisp, the silver's bright.
Hear the clink of the glass, the murmur and the call.
This is the downtown we built for us all.
Come on, pull up a seat, there's always room for more.
This is the heartbeat, right outside the door.

At The Select, the cocktails are shining.
At Flower Child, the bowls are bright green.
The scent of lemongrass from Nam Kitchen,
The prettiest plate you've ever seen.
And later on, for something sweet,
There's Cafe Intermezzo's glow.
A thousand different stories,
A thousand places you could go.

Yeah, the table is set for Sandy Springs tonight.
The linen's crisp, the silver's bright.
Hear the clink of the glass, the murmur and the call.
This is the downtown we built for us all.
Come on, pull up a seat, there's always room for more.
This is the heartbeat, right outside the door.

We waited for this.
A place to just be.
A center of gravity for you and for me.
More than just dinner, more than just a plate.
It's the promise we kept, at the city's new gate.
It's the sound of belonging, clear and so near.
The answer to the question: what are we doing here?

What are we doing here?
The table is set.
The table is set.
Come on and sit down.
Yeah.
