Indigo Girls - Power of Two (single edit) lyrics

Now the parking lot is empty Everyone's gone someplace I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed A cooler and a two day suitcase 'Cause there's a place we like to drive Way out in the country And five miles out of the city limit we're singin' And your hand's upon my knee So we're okay, we're fine Baby, I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart Look at them together then we'll take them apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two I know the things that I am afraid of I'm not afraid to tell And if we ever leave a legacy It's that we loved each other well 'Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people Trying on the treasures of youth But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash And I'm glad we got off, to tell you the truth 'Cause we're okay, we're fine Baby I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two All the shiny little trinkets of temptation (Big old) Something new instead of something old (Keep me old) But all you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface (But remember) And it's fool's gold (What is gold?) Fool's gold (What is gold?) Fool's gold (What is gold?) Now we're talking about a difficult thing And your eyes are getting wet And I took us for better and I took us for worse Don't you ever forget it (And now the steel bars) The steel bars between me and a promise (Between me and a promise) Suddenly bend with ease And the closer I'm bound in love to you The closer I am to free (Free) So we're okay, we're fine Baby, I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart Look at them together then we'll take 'em apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two
