Our Deliverence Lyrics - Indigo Girls

Now we can say that nothings lost 

And only change brings 'round the prophecy 

Well now it's melting the solid frost 

Was once a veil on greener landscapes we would see 

Beneath my surface the water's heating 

The steam comes up and out the tears you see me shine 

For every strange and bitter moment 

There was never a better time 

For every pleasure exacts its pain 

How you hurt me, how you were good to me 

Beneath my window a mournful train 

That makes me smile at my bad poetry

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

But beneath my surface a song is rising 

And it may be simple well it hides it's true intent 

We may be a looking for our deliverance 

But it has already been sent 

It's in the nightfall when the light falls 

And what you've seen isn't there anymore 

It's in our blind trust, love will find us 

Just like it has before 

They're sending soldiers to distant places 

X's and O's on someones drawing board 

Like green and plastic but with human faces 

And they want to tell you it's a merciful sword 

But with all the blood newly dried in the desert 

Can we not fertilize the land with something else 

There is no nation by God exempted 

Lay down your weapons and love your neighbor as yourself

It's in the nightfall when the light falls 

And what you've seen isn't there anymore 

It's through our blind trust that love will find us 

Just like it has before
