Because this is not the Pandora...
Yet again, Indigo Girls, yet again right on target...
Mystery - Indigo Girls
Each time you pulled down the driveway
I wasn’t sure when I would see you again.
Yours was a twisted, blind-sided highway
No matter which road you took back then.
Oh you set up your place in my thoughts,
Moved in and made my thinking crowded.
Now we’re out in the back with the barking dogs
My heart the red sun, your heart the moon clouded.
I could go crazy on a night like tonight
When the summer’s beginning to give up her fight
And every thought’s a possibility and the voices are heard, but nothing is seen.
Why do you spend this time with me may be an equal mystery.
So what is love then? Is it dictated or chosen?
Does it sing like the hymns of 1000 years, or is it just pop emotion?
And if it ever was here and it left does that mean it was never true?
And to exist it must elude, is that why I think these things of you?
I could go crazy on a night like tonight
When the summer’s beginning to give up her fight
And every thought’s a possibility, and the voices are heard but nothing is seen.
Why do you spend this time with me may be an equal mystery.
Oh but you like the taste of danger,
It shines like sugar on your lips
And you like to stand in the line of fire
Just to show you can shoot straight from your hip.
There must be 1000 things you would die for
I can hardly think of two.
But not everything is better spoken aloud
Not when I’m talking to you.
Oh the pirate gets the ship and the girl tonight
Breaks a bottle to christen her.
Basking in the exploits of her thief
She’s a very good listener
And maybe that’s all that we need is to meet in the middle of impossibility.
Standing at opposite poles equal partners in a mystery.
We’re standing at opposite poles, equal partners in a mystery.
