Indigo Girls Draw The Line
"Draw the Line" is an Amy Ray song. A studio version of it appears on "Blue Food." (Additionally, there's a live version of it on the legendary "Purple Parrot" bootleg - I mention it only because it is immediately followed by a version of Elvis Costello's "Girls Talk" - which is probably the only occasion in the history of music itself that a band has played two songs in a row that both include the word "jaded.") Draw the Line. You can write me a letter But I won't tell you where I am You can send me a postcard, baby But I won't tell you where I stand Well, I'm right outside of your window And I'm walking on through your love And I'm giving you all I can, babe But I know you've been thinking "No." And now, baby, it's time Baby, it's time To draw the line Draw the line You may have good intentions And I may be dead wrong If what you see here isn't love, babe It's 'cause I'm too tired to be that strong Now I'm burned out on your affection Because it comes from a jaded tongue And I'm burned out on your direction, baby I know I'm not the only one Baby, it's time Baby, it's time To draw the line Draw the line Draw that line, baby Draw that line, yeah Keep it straight Keep it close And tell me What do you have in mind? (solo) I'm gonna take this heartache I'm gonna turn it all inside out I'm gonna find every livin' last drop of love Until I'm too sure to have any doubt Now you can love me if you want me Or you can turn away and tell me to go Now you can write me a letter You can send me a postcard But don't tell me what you're thinking If you really don't know, baby Baby, it's time to draw the line Draw the line Yeah, draw that line.
