Get Out The Map
Indigo Girls The saddest sight my eyes can see Is that big ball of orange sinking slyly down the trees Sittin in a broken circle while you rest upon my knee This perfect moment moment will soon be leaving me Suzanne calls from Boston the coffee's hot the corn is high And that same sun that warms your heart will suck the good earth dry With everything it's opposite enough to keep you crying Or keep this old world spinning with a twinkle in its eye Don't drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone And lay your finger anywhere down Get out the map get out the map We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town I'm gonna clear my head I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young I'm gonna drink that sun And me I'm still trying to live half a life on the road Joni left for South Africa a few years ago Seems I'm heavier by the year and heavier by the load And Beth took a job all the way over on the West Coast Why do we hurtle ourselves through ever inch of time and space I must say around some corner I can sense a resting place We'll amuse ourselves one day with these memories we'll trace With every lesson learned a line upon your beautiful face And lay your finger anywhere down Get out the map get out the map Don't drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone I'm gonna clear my head We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and youngI'm gonna drink that sun |
