INDIGO GIRLS - if you live like that lyrics

rate me

you say you want to live for today

before today is lost

but when the returns come in

do they balance the cost

i can see your four wheels spin

i can smell smoke from the blaze

but we aren't moving anyway

if you're seeing past rose colored shades

if you live like that

don't look back

'cause it's cold

and it's mighty

it may turn your back

blood on the tracks baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks baby

i said don't look back

i see it all around

people want it good and want it fast

as long as it moves you for the moment

it doesn't matter if it lasts

but our love is sweet

it can drive me to my knees

but we still got troubles you and i

seeing the forest for the trees

if you live like that

don't look back

'cause it's cold

and it's mighty

it may turn your back

blood on the tracks baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks baby

i said don't look back

i've had enough of these two lives

you say you'll give to me

i've had enough of your freedom

you know i want to feel free

i've had enough gospel

i could spin my head around

i said if you're so caught up in heaven

you don't even see the ground

if you live like that

don't look back

'cause it's cold

and it's mighty

it may turn your back

blood on the tracks, baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks, baby

i said don't look back

all we need is to take time

(slow down, new way)

see tomorrow in plain sight

(new dawn, new day)

new horizon in plain view

and we're oiling up the engine

to put you straight on through

if you live like that

don't look back

oh no 'cause it's cold

and it's mighty

it may turn your back

blood on the tracks baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks baby

i said don't look back

blood on the tracks baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks baby

i said don't look back

oh there's blood on the tracks baby

blood on the tracks

blood on the tracks baby

don't look back

don't look back

if you live like that
