Power of Two (single edit) - Indigo Girls

Now the parking lot is empty

Everyone's gone some place

I picked you up and in the trunk I've packed

A cooler and a two day suitcase

'Coz there's a place we like to drive

way out in the country

five miles out of the city limit we're singing

and your hands upon my knee

So we're okay

We're fine

Baby I'm here to stop your crying

Chase all the ghost from your head

I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed

Smarter than the tricks played on your heart

Look at them together then we'll take 'em apart

Adding up a total of of a love that's true

Multiply life by the power of two

Know the things that I am afraid of

I'm not afraid to tell

And if we ever leave a legacy

it's that we love each other well

'Coz I've seen the shadows of so many people

Tryin' all the treasures of youth

Fancy and fast

Ends in a fatal crash

And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth

So we're okay

We're fine

Baby I'm here to stop your crying

Chase all the ghost from your head

I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed

Smarter than the tricks played on your heart

Look at them together then we'll take 'em apart

Adding up a total of of a love that's true

Multiply life by the power of two

(adlib)

All the sunny little trinkets of temptation

Something new instead of something old

All we gotta do is scratch beneath the surface

And it's fool's gold

Fool's gold

Fool's gold

Now we're talking 'bout a difficult thing and your

Eyes are getting wet

And it took us for better and it took us for worst

And don't you ever forget it

The steel bars between me and a promise

Suddenly bend with ease

And the closer I'm bound in love to you

The closer I am to free

So we're okay

We're fine

Baby I'm here to stop your crying

Chase all the ghost from your head

I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed

Smarter than the tricks played on your heart

Look at them together then we'll take 'em apart

Adding up a total of of a love that's true

Multiply life by the power of two
