Indigo Girls Song Lyrics




Words and Music: Amy Ray

Laughing in a crowd of jewels
Numbness from a sceptors wound
Toss and turn, I spin and learn
Catch yourself before you burn
A joker's dance before the king
Jangling beads, a silver ring
Close your eyes and bare the sound
Jumping up--falling down

Falling, falling, falling, falling down
Look yourself in the eye before you drown

Royal rebels discover you
Trust? You turn there is no truth
And circle, circle, why are you scared?
Why a smile instead of tears?
I'm gulping smoke to fade away
Figures floating down to lay
Meet the joker and the thief
King and queen--but no relief

Amy:
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Emily:
The king is in his counting house, counting all his money
The queen is in her parlor, eating bread and honey
The king is in his counting house, counting all his money
The queen is in the parlor, eating bread and honey.

--Mary had a little lamb--

I cross myself before I die
The leaping man he asks me why?
Well your rhythm is off I reply
Now you must dance the dance that you imply
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
The higher the leap, I said,
The harder the ground!
