Killing Time Lyrics - Indigo Girls

Who is counting sleepless nights? 

Who is counting letters I meant to write? 

Who is counting at all? 

If you are, I look pretty small 

-chorus- 

But no matter what I do 

If I couldn't be call you mine 

If I couldn't be with you 

I'd just be killing time 

You went searching for me in the night sky 

And when I burned away, you wondered why 

Well, I'll tell you, babe, I could not bear to stall 

I fell too fast, I fell too far 

-chorus- 

Big, big fishes in little ponds 

I've seen them walk around with magic wands 

-chorus- 

There ain't no magician hidden inside of me 

So no matter what you hear, I hope you see 

That just when I'm trying to be tall 

That's when I end up looking pretty small 

-chorus- 

No matter what I do 

(And you know I will burn) 

If I couldn't be call you mine 

(Like a star in the sky) 

If I couldn't be with you 

(All I'd be doing is) 

I'd just be killing time 

-chorus-
