Elysium - Mary Chapin Carpenter[00:00:00]
I don't really know how I got here this time[00:00:09]
I was only just following orders[00:00:19]
Listening to the voice in my mind[00:00:26]
Saying steer clear of margins and borders[00:00:36]
So I wasn't thinking of where we would go[00:00:42]
On a could afternoon through the mountains we drove[00:00:47]
Up a few hairpin turns and then spread out below[00:00:52]
The valley appeared with the sun[00:00:57]
Like Elysium[00:01:04]
I looked out the window and stared at the fields[00:01:12]
Where the blue sky and green were colliding[00:01:24]
I looked back at you and I knew we were sealed[00:01:31]
By a fate that has ways of providing[00:01:42]
Yes sometimes you get there in spite of the route Losing track of your life and[00:01:47]
What it's about[00:01:54]
The road seems to know when to straighten right out[00:01:56]
The closer you come[00:02:02]
To Elysium[00:02:09]
They say there's a place for those who are good[00:02:32]
With it's pearly gates swinging wide open[00:02:43]
The rest of us here are just knocking on wood[00:02:50]
Quietly piously hoping[00:03:02]
I could wonder if all of it led me to you[00:03:06]
I could show you the arrows and circles I drew[00:03:11]
I didn't have a map it's the best I could do[00:03:16]
On the fly and on the run[00:03:21]
To dreams that were tethered like kites to the ground[00:03:26]
To the bridges I burned to then turning around[00:03:31]
It was here in your heart I was finally found[00:03:36]
And the last battle won for Elysium[00:03:41]
