INDIGO GIRLS - Dead Man's Hill lyrics

rate me

We were down at dead man's hill

Smoking vines like cigarettes

Looking through the trashy mags

Trying to feel what's coming next

You told me of crashing cars

Older brothers and late night bars

I told you what I feel most

And you kept it like a ghost forever

Don't you write it down

Remember this in your head

Don't take a picture

Remember this in your heart

Don't leave a message

Talk to me face to face

Talk to me face to face

Lying on the bright blue jumping mat

Dinner bell is ringing

Barking dogs and model planes

And the sound of passing trains

We watch for bonfires in the sky

On the beach in july

Spin the bottle steal the kiss

Postcards to the one I miss forever

The one I miss forever

Don't you write it down

Remember this in your head

Don't take a picture

Remember this in your heart

I'll leave a message

When everything comes apart

(talk to me face to face)

[talk to me face to face]

(everything comes apart)

I'll leave a message

When everything comes apart

I remember cats on fire

Gasoline a burning spiral

Standing underneath the night

Fighting back with all my might

Empty cans and charred remains

Find them in the heat of day

On the top of dead man's hill

This is what I know of shame forever
