Iowa歌詞

Iowa - Carrie Elkin
I've never had a way with women
But the hills of Iowa
Make me wish that I could
And I've never found a way
To say I love you
But if the chance came by
Oh I I would
But way back where I come from
We never mean to bother
We don't like to make our passions
Other peoples concern
And we walk in the world of safe people
And at night we walk into our houses and burn
Iowa Iowa I Iowa
How I long to fall just a little bit
To dance out of the lines
And stray from the light
But I fear that to fall in love with you
Is to fall from a great and gruesome height
So you know I asked a friend about it
On a bad day
Her husband had just left her
She sat down on the chair he'd left behind
She said
"What is love where did it get me
Whoever thought of love
Is no friend of mine"
Iowa Iowa I Iowa
Once I had everything but I gave it up
For the shoulder of your driveway
And the words I've never felt
So for you I came this far across the tracks
Ten miles above the limit
And with no seatbelt and I'd do it again
For tonight I went running through
The screen doors of discretion
For I woke up from a nightmare
That I could not stand to see
You were a-wandering out on the hills of Iowa
And you were not thinking of me
Oh I Iowa Iowa I Iowa
Iowa Iowa I Iowa
Iowa
