Fare Thee Well
Indigo Girls fare thee well my bright star i watched your taillights blaze into nothingness before you blazed past this address but you were long gone before I ever got to you but never know what it feels like to never love and now I think of having loved and having lost who can say what's better when my heart's become the cost fare thee well my bright star a mere token of a brighter jewel sent from above the vanity of youth the color of your eyes and maybe if i'd fanned the blazing fire of your day or if i'd been older i'd been wise too thick the heat of those long summer evenings for a cool evening i began to yearn but you could only feed upon the things which feed a fire waiting to see if i would burn it was a brief brilliant miracle dive that which i looked up to and i clung to for dear life fare thee well my bright star had to burn itself up just to make itself alive and i caught you then in your moment of glory your last dramatic scene against a night sky stage with a moment so clear that it's as if you're still before me my once in a lifetime star of an age so fare thee well my bright star last night the tongues of fire circled me around and this strange season of pain will come to pass when the healing hands of autumn cool me down copyright 1994 bmi virgin music inc and godhap music (bmiwords and music emily saliers |
