Starkville Lyrics - Become You - Indigo Girls

If you were here in Starkville 

Towny boys would love the way you stare 

If you were here in starkville 

Well the local girls they wouldn't have a prayer 

Well I've spent a reckless night inside the wonder 

Of your everlasting charm 

Now I'm haunted by geography and the flora 

And the fauna of your heart 

At the dawning of some road worn day 

I call you on a whim just to say 

The morning birds are singing 

But I could not do them justice 

So I hung up and I fell back to sleep

But I'm in love with my mobility 

Oh sometimes this life can be a drag 

Like when I notice your nobility 

And how my leaving 

It only held you back 

But I remember one occassion 

When you were drinking 

And you asked me to the coast 

But I was hell bent on agony back then 

And so I missed the boat 

At the dawning of some road worn day 

I call you on a whim just to say 

My regrets become distractions 

And I cannot do them justice 

And I hung up and I fell back to sleep

When I was down in Starkville 

I was hiding out inside some Comfort Inn 

From a local gang of troubadours 

When the homecoming queen 

She come ridin in 

(oooh) 

Yeah but I slipped out of my room into the rain 

(oooh) 

And I went running for my health 

(oooh) 

I watched those headlights turn to moonlight 

And finally I was running by myself 

Now its the dawning of some road worn day 

And I call you on a whim just to say 

The morning birds are singing
