Indigo Girls If You Live Like That
"If You Live Like That" is one of the few songs ever co-written by Amy AND Emily. It appears on "Blue Food." I thought it kinda fits in with the Dylan stuff I've been posting, 'cause the chorus is basically them listing his album titles... If Y ou Live Like That. You say you want to live for today Before today is lost But when the returns come in Do they balance the cost? I can see your four wheels spin I can smell smoke from the blaze But we aren't moving anyway If you're seeing past rose colored shades. Chorus: If you live like that Don't look back 'Cause it's cold And it's mighty It may turn your back Blood on the tracks, baby Blood on the tracks Blood on the tracks, baby I said, don't look back. I see it all around People want it good and want it fast As long as it moves you for the moment It doesn't matter if it lasts But our love is sweet It can drive me to my knees But we still got troubles, you and I Seeing the forest for the trees. Chorus. I've had enough of these two lives You say you'll give to me I've had enough of your freedom You know I want to feel free I've had enough gospel I could spin my head around I said, if you're so caught up in heaven You don't even see the ground. Chorus. All we need is to take time (slow down, new way) See tomorrow in plain sight (new dawn, new day) New horizon in plain view And we're hauling up the engine To put you straight on through. Chorus. Blood on the tracks, baby Blood on the tracks Blood on the tracks, baby I said, don't look back Blood on the tracks, baby Blood on the tracks Blood on the tracks, baby I said, don't look back Don't look back If you live like that.
