INDIGO GIRLS - Get Out The Map lyrics

rate me

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