Virginia Woolf Lyrics - 1200 Curfews - Indigo Girls

Some will strut and some will fret 

See this an hour on this stage 

Others will not but they'll sweat 

In their hopelessness in their rage 

We're all the same 

The men of anger 

And the women of the page 

They published your diary 

And that's how I got to know you 

Key to the room of your own and a mind without end 

And here's a young girl 

On a kind of a telephone line through time 

And the voice at the other end comes like a long lost friend

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

So I know I'm all right 

my life will come my life will go 

Still I feel it's all right 

'Cause I just got a letter to my soul 

When my whole life is on the tip of my tongue 

Empty pages for the no longer young 

The apathy of time laughs in my face 

You say each life has its place 

The hatches were battened 

Thunderclouds rolled and the critics stormed 

Battles surrounded the white flag of your youth 

But if you need to know that you weathered the storm 

Of cruel mortality 

A hundred years later I'm sitting here living proof

So you know it's all right 

Your life will come your life will go 

Still you feel it's all right 

Someone will get a letter to your soul 

When your whole life was on the tip of your tongue 

Empty pages for the no longer young 

The apathy of time laughed in your face 

Did you hear me say each life has its place 

The place where you hold me 

Is dark in a pocket of truth 

The moon has swallowed the sun and the light of the earth 

And so it was for you when the river eclipsed your life 

But sent your soul like a message in a bottle to me 

And it was my rebirth 

So we know we're all right 

Life will come and life will go 

Still you'll feel it's all right 

Someone'll get a message to your soul 

(And then you'll know you're all right) 

And when my life is on the tip of my tongue 

(Then you'll feel you're all right) 

Empty pages for the no longer young 

(The you'll feel it's all right, and it's all right) 

You said each life has its place 

(The you'll feel it's all right, and it's all right) 

And you said each life has its place 

And it's all right
