Power Of Two Lyrics

Performed by Indigo Girls) 

  

 Now the parking lot is empty 

 Everyone's gone someplace 

 I pick you up and in the trunk 

 I've packed a cooler and a 2-day suitcase 

 Cause there's a place we like to drive 

 Way out in the country five miles out of the city limit 

 We're singing and your hand's upon my knee 

 So we're okay we're fine baby 

  

 I'm here to stop your crying chase 

 All the ghosts from your head 

 I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed 

 Smarter than the tricks played on your heart 

 We'll look at them together 

 Then we'll take them apart adding up the total 

 Of a love that's true multiply life by the power of two 

 You know the things that i am afraid of 

 I'm not afraid to tell and if we'd ever leave a legacy 

 It's that we loved each other well 

 I've seen the shadows of so many people 

 Trying on the treasures of youth 

 A road that fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash 

 And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth 

 Cause we're okay we're fine baby 

  

 I'm here to stop your crying 

 Chase all the ghosts from your head 

 I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed 

 Smarter than the tricks played on your heart 

 We'll look at them together then 

 We'll take them apart adding up 

 The total of a love that's true 

 Multiply life by the power of two 

  

 All the shiny little trinkets of temptation 

 (make new friends) something new 

 Instead of something old (but keep the old) 

 All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface 

 (and remember what is gold) and it's fools gold 

 Fools gold fools gold (what is gold what is gold) 

 And now we're talking about a difficult thing 

 And your eyes are getting wet but 

 I took us for better and I took us for worse 

 And don't you ever forget it 

 The steel bars between me and a promise 

 Suddenly bend with ease and closer 

 I'm bound in love to you the closer I am 

 So free so we're okay we're fine baby 

  

 I'm here to stop your crying 

 Chase all the ghosts from your head 

 I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed 

 Smarter than the tricks played on your heart 

 We'll look at them together then 

 We'll take 'em apart adding up the total of 

 A love that's true multiply life by the power of two
