Power Of Two

Indigo Girls


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 2-day suitcase
Cause there's a place we like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city limit we're singing
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
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

You 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 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
(make new friends)
Something new instead of something old
(but keep the old)
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
(but remember what is gold)
And it's fools gold
(what is gold)
Fools gold
(what is gold)
Fools gold

Now we're talking about a difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
I took us for better and i took us for worse
Don't you ever forget it
Now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
The closer i'm bound in love to you
The closer i am to 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
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
