Perfect World Lyrics - All That We Let In - Indigo Girls

We get to be a ripple in the water 

We get to be a rock that's thrown 

We get to be a boy on the bridge 

Standing over the reservoir 

I see the water lap along the shoreline 

The buried forest of a man-made lake 

Cemeteries are laying underneath it 

Your heart like a damm when it breaks. 

We are floating, we are swimming 

And in this moment we are forgetting 

What we costs, what it takes 

For one perfect world when we look the other way

I'm okay if I don't look a little closer 

I am driving with the tank full 

I'm okay I if don't see beyond the shore 

The sun is blistering the black top road 

I'm okay I don't have to do the killing 

We are talking cellular and mobile 

Or know what the killing is for 

As if it's come kind of cure for this world of woe 

We are talking, we are driving 

And in this moment we are denying 

What it costs, what it takes 

For one perfect world when we look the other way 

It's one perfect world 

when we look the other way 

It's one perfect world

If you can't see beyond the myth of isolation 

And the miracle of daybreak doesn't move you anymore 

Connect the points and see the constellations 

As the night comes down on the reservoir 

We are swimming, we are floating 

And in this moment we are beholden 

To what it costs, to what it takes 

For one perfect world 

Can we learn to live another way? 

It's one perfect world 

Can we learn to live another way? 

It's one perfect world
