Get out the map lyrics

Artist  : Indigo girls 
Song : Get out the map
 
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 moment will soon be leaving
me
Suzanne calls from Boston the coffee's hot the
corn is high
And that same sun that warms your heart will suck
the good earth dry
With everything it's opposite enough to keep you
crying
Or keep this old world spinning with a twinkle in
its eye
Get out the map get out the map
And lay your finger anywhere down
We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our
way out of town
Don't drink the water there seems to be something
ailing everyone
I'm gonna clear my head
I'm gonna drink that sun
I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love
is good and young
Joni left for South Africa a few years ago
And Beth took a job all the way over on the West
Coast
And me I'm still trying to live half a life on
the road
Seems I'm heavier by the year and heavier by the
load
Why do we hurtle ourselves through ever 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
We'll amuse ourselves one day with these memories
we'll trace
Get out the map get out the map
And lay your finger anywhere down
We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our
way out of town
Don't drink the water there seems to be something
ailing everyone
I'm gonna clear my head
I'm gonna drink that sun
I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love
is good and young
