Indigo Girls — Get Out The Map lyrics

Lyrics

IЂ™m gonna clear my head
IЂ™m gonna drink that sun
The saddest sight my eyes can see
Is that big ball of orange sinking slyly down the trees
Sittin in a broken circle while you rest upon my knee
This perfect moment will soon be leaving me Suzanne calls from boston the coffeeЂ™s hot the corn is high
And that same sun that warms your heart will suck the good earth dry
With everything itЂ™s opposite enough to keep you crying
Or keep this old world spinning with a twinkle in itЂ™s eye
Get out the map
Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down
WeЂ™ll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town
DonЂ™t drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone
IЂ™m gonna clear my head
IЂ™m gonna drink that sun
IЂ™m gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young
Joni left for south africa a few years ago
And then beth took a job all the way over on the west coast
And me IЂ™m still trying to live half a life on the road
Seems IЂ™m heavier by the year
(heavier by the year)
And heavier by the load
(heavier by the load)
Why do we hurtle ourselves through every inch of time and space
I must say around some corner I can sense a resting place
With every lesson learned a line upon your beautiful face
WeЂ™ll amuse ourselves one day with these memories weЂ™ll trace
Get out the map
Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down
WeЂ™ll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town
DonЂ™t drink the water there seems to be something ailing everyone
IЂ™m gonna clear my head
(IЂ™m gonna clear my head)
IЂ™m gonna drink that sun
(IЂ™m gonna drink that sun)
IЂ™m gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young
IЂ™m gonna clear my head
IЂ™m gonna drink that sun
IЂ™m gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young
