All That We Let In (Live at the Fillmore, San Francisco, CA - November 2003) - Indigo Girls

Lyrics by：Emily Saliers

Composed by：Emily Saliers

Ooo

Ooo

Ooo

Dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up

Heartsick we nursed along the way we picked up

You may not see it when it's sticking to your skin

But we're better off for all that we let in

We've lost friends and loved ones much too young

There were so much promises and work left undone

When all that guards us is a single centerline

And the brutal crossing over when it's time

Ooo

Well I don't know where it all begins

Ooo

And I don't know where it all will end

Ooo

We're better off for all that we let in

One day those toughies will be withered up and bent

The father son the holy warriors and the President

With glory days of put up dukes

For all the world to see

Beaten into submission in the name of the free

We're in a nevolution I have heard it said

And everyone's so busy now but do we move ahead

The planets hurting and atoms splitting

And a sweater for your love you sit there knitting

Ooo

Well I don't know where it all begins

Ooo

And I don't know where it all will end

Ooo

We're better off for all that we let in

See those crosses on the side of the road

Tied with ribbons in the medium

They make me grateful I can go this small

Lay me down and never wake me up again

Kat writes a poem and she sticks it on my truck

We don't believe in war and we don't believe in luck

The birds were calling to her

What were they saying

As the gate blew open in the

Tops of the trees were swaying

I've passed the cemetery walk my

Dog down there

I read the names in stone and say a silent prayer

When I get home you're cooking supper on the stove

And the greatest gift of life is to know love

Ooo

Well I don't know where it all begins

Ooo

And I don't know where it all will end

Ooo

We're better off for all that we let in
