INDIGO GIRLS - killing time lyrics

rate me

who is counting sleepless nights

who is counting letters i meant to write

i said who is counting at all

if you are

i look pretty small

but no matter what i do

if i couldn't call you mine

if i couldn't be with you

i'd just be killing time

you went searching for me in the night sky

and when i burned away you wondered why

well i'll tell you babe i could not bear to stall

i fell too fast i fell too far

but no matter what i do

if i couldn't call you mine

if i couldn't be with you

i'd just be killing time

big big fishes in little ponds

i've seen them walk around with magic wands

but no matter what i do

if i couldn't call you mine

if i couldn't be with you

i'd just be killing time

there ain't no magician hidden inside of me

so no matter what you hear i hope you see

that just when i'm trying to be tall

that's when i end up looking pretty small

but no matter what i do

if i couldn't call you mine

if i couldn't be with you

i'd just be killing time

no matter what i do

(and you know i will burn)

if i couldn't be call you mine

(like a star in the sky)

if i couldn't be with you

(all i'd be doing is)

i'd just be killing time

but no matter what i do

if i couldn't call you mine

if i couldn't be with you

i'd just be killing time
