Indigo Girls

Indigo Girls - Untitled Song lyrics

appeared on "Blue Food," and it has been performed as recently as

1989. Actually, I seem to recall someone telling me that they heard

it more recently... At any rate, I think that it may have been the

first truly great IG song, IMHO, and still ranks right up there as

one of the best.

The Untitled Song.

I tried my best to get over you

Kept my distance so I wouldn't have to show

That the things which I kept hidden

By my casual smile

Were the things that I needed you to know.

You could have seen the acting on the stage

You could have read the writing on the page

You could have noticed that a heart went breaking into two

But you never knew it was I was falling for you.

Sometimes I still think that I could get to you

Then I laugh, and think I could swim the seven seas

It seems when I'm set to fly, there's a storm up in the sky

When I'm set to sail, there isn't any breeze.

You could have seen the acting on the stage

You could have read the writing on the page

You could have noticed that a heart went breaking into two

But you never knew it was I was falling for you.

(solo)

It's been some time now that I saw you in a photograph

Looking just the way you did so long ago

I could almost see you throw your head back

And start to laugh in that gentle way that used to let me know

Things were okay, and a hurting song is just a cliche

And what's the use if they only always fade away

Just like the sun - just like everyone - but you
