Indigo Girls - Lay My Head Down lyrics

Oh the party's kicked up a few notches look at us getting loose She leans back against the wall and she watches tugging her collar like it might be a noose. And everyones tied to their thing To their past or their drink or the date that they bring I just get tired all of sudden taking it in. And I want to lay my head down on you Because youre the only solid thing in this room A room full of changes strangers illusion confusion, I speak from my heart but im not really sure if its true. I wanna lay my head down on you. Oh dont waste too much time planning Or you'll get rug ripped out And the only way you'll be satisfied Is learning to live with out. But some plan for the kingdom of heaven And some take their chances and bet lucky seven I don't know what to believe I just show up and breathe anymore. And I wanna lay my head down on you Because youre the only solid thing in this room A room full of dressers, professors, lookers, hookers If I don't get out I'll do something I don't wanna do. And I wanna lay my head down on you. Was it so long ago That we sat and talked in your car Your things were all packed And the place you were headed not really that far Years later I think That I would have been much more alive To have taken you up on your offer and taken that drive Well everything that's come before us leads us to where we are now And thats simple, I know so why cant I let go of the feeling That im lost somehow I'm just a ghost looking in Out of my own life just visiting In search of a body to have and to hold and to keep and to sleep. I wanna lay my head down on you Because youre the only solid thing in this room A room full of missed chance, slow dance, cold fate heartache I showed up for a party and saw my life story full view And I wanna lay my head down on you.
