Indigo Girls - Perfect World lyrics

We get to be a ripple in the water We get to be a rock that's thrown We get to be a boy on the bridge Standing over the reservoir I see the water lapping on the shoreline Buried forest of a man made lake Cemeteries are laying underneath it Your heart like a damn embrace We're floating we're swimming And at this moment we are forgetting What we caused what it takes The one perfect world when we look the other way I'm okay if I don't look a little closer I'm okay I if don't see beyond the shore I'm okay I don't have to do the k**ing or Know what the k**ing is for We're talking we're driving And in this moment we are denying What we caused what it takes The one perfect world when we look the other way One perfect world...when we look the other way You can see beyond the middle isolation And the miracle of daybreak doesn't move you anymore Connect the points and then see the constellations As the night comes down on the reservoir We're swimming we're floating And in this moment we are beholden To what we've caused to what it takes The one perfect world Can we learn to live another way Perfect world...can we learn to live another way One...perfect world Get to be a ripple in the water
