The Elms - Back To Indiana lyrics

rate me

VERSE 1. <br />There ain't no way to tell a man why a river flows, <br />Or how a diamond can be born out of busted coal. <br />There ain't a word that I can find to describe her touch. <br />I can't deny that I would follow her through flame and flood. <br /> <br />I got a ticket for a bus leavin' New Orleans. <br />I'll say a prayer that every single light turns green. <br />I'll buy a cheap bouquet from the flower shop, <br />And hope she waits for me at the final stop. <br /> <br />Oh, she will... <br /> <br /> <br />CHORUS: <br />I'm going back to Indiana now <br />To see my baby in her evening gown. <br />And even if the world is burning down, <br />I'm going back to Indiana now. <br /> <br /> <br />VERSE 2. <br />I've played guitar each night for the finest kind. <br />I've left a whole lotta chance on the road behind. <br />I don't believe in fate. I call it destiny. <br />And if I'm lucky yet, she'll keep a place for me. <br /> <br />Oh, she will... <br /> <br />CHORUS: <br />I'm going back to Indiana now <br />To see my baby in her evening gown. <br />And even if the world is burning down, <br />I'm going back to Indiana now. <br /> <br /> <br />VERSE 3: <br />I've got a photo of her standin' near an orange tree. <br />I keep it hidden in my pocket with a rosary. <br />I told the driver of the bus that he had a deal, <br />By the morning I'll be with her in the golden fields. <br /> <br />CHORUS (X2) <br /> <br />I'm going back to Indiana now (X2) <br /> <br />Oh she will....<br /><br />
