《All That We Let In》歌词

[00:00:00] All That We Let In - Indigo Girls

[00:00:36] Dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up

[00:00:41] Heartsick we nursed along the way we picked up

[00:00:47] You may not see it when it's sticking to your skin

[00:00:52] But we're better off for all that we let in

[00:00:58] Lost friends and loved ones much too young

[00:01:04] So much promises and work left undone

[00:01:10] When all that guards us is a single centerline

[00:01:15] And the brutal crossing over when it's time

[00:01:20] I don't know where it all begins

[00:01:26] And I don't know where it all will end

[00:01:33] We're better off for all that we let in

[00:01:38] One day those toughies will be withered up and bent

[00:01:44] The father son the holy warriors and the president

[00:01:49] With glory days of put up dukes for all the world to see

[00:01:55] Beaten into submission in the name of the free

[00:02:01] We're in a nevolution I have heard it said

[00:02:06] Everyone's so busy now but do we move ahead

[00:02:13] The planets hurting and atoms splitting

[00:02:18] And a sweater for your love you sit there knitting

[00:02:24] I don't know where it all begins

[00:02:29] And I don't know where it all will end

[00:02:36] We're better off for all that we let in

[00:02:40] See those crosses on the side of the road

[00:02:46] Tied with ribbons in the medium

[00:02:51] They make me grateful I can go this far

[00:02:57] Lay me down and never wake me up again

[00:03:04] Kat writes a poem and she sticks it on my truck

[00:03:09] We don't believe in war and we don't believe in luck

[00:03:15] The birds were calling to her what were they saying

[00:03:20] As the gate blew open the tops of the trees were swaying

[00:03:50] I've passed the cemetery walk my dog down there

[00:03:55] I read the names in stone and say a silent prayer

[00:04:01] When I get home you're cooking supper on the stove

[00:04:06] And the greatest gift of life is to know love

[00:04:11] I don't know where it all begins

[00:04:18] And I don't know where it all will end

[00:04:24] We're better off for all that we let in
