Karaoké Perfect World Indigo Girls

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

Lap along the shoreline

A buried forest

In a manmade lake

The cemeteries

Are laying underneath it

And her heart like a dam when it breaks

We're floating

We're swimming

And in this moment

We are forgetting what it cost

What it takes

For one perfect world

When we look the other way

I'm okay

If I don't look a little closer

I'm okay

If I don't see beyond the shore

I'm okay

If I don't have to do the killing

Or now what the killing's for

We're talking

We're driving

And in this moment

We are denying what it cost

What it takes for one perfect world

When we look the other way

It's one

Perfect world

When we look the other way

It's one

Perfect world

When we look the other way

It's one

Perfect world

Yeah

If you can't see

Beyond the mental isolation

And the miracle of daybreak

Doesn't move you anymore

Connect the points

And see the constellations

As the night comes down on the reservoir

We are swimming

We are floating

And in this moment we are beholding to what it cost

To what it takes

For one perfect world

Can we learn to live in other ways

One

Perfect world

Can we learn to live in other ways

One

Perfect world

Can we learn to live in other ways

One

Perfect world

One perfect world

We get to be

A ripple in the water
