Idaho - Caitlin Canty

Every thought about you takes a rest Less than nothing makes you perfect now I'm on the top of the world I'm feeling like all these places Are just little breaks from the heart Something breaks from your heart I feel the fight take you back But troubles there won't attack There's nothing really left to do But to just keep loving this Where did you forget about all of this life? Battles cannot rattle you anymore The mystery grows larger when you drive To Alta Dena streets somehow survive

Oh life When are you truly there Do you think about the world How far this time to be yourself Must you go down a stream Floating on the top is better And you feel just what you are What you are talking about is pure What you're talking about is pure What you're talking about is pure And what you're talking about Must be the dream beyond the words It gives way and steers itself How far this time to be the one That you knew was always here Won't you take the time to get it So you'll know just what you are What you're talking about is pure What you're talking about is pure What you're talking about is pure And what you're talking about Will hang the sun every day to melt you down Will hang the sun every day to melt you down

It's a lie that's filled with reason It's a chord you'll never figure out And there's something about this machine That tells you that this was the right thing How can I bond with something That doesn't have a soul? It's time to get to the bottom of it And let the mystery unfold

In a motel with a bouquet in the ice pail You can tell them I'm doing OK doing real well I've got six strings in the morning Rain danced on the roof last night Moon rose without warning Took its time crossing the sky I could tell you about lonely roads and the high way I could warn you about the trouble and the time it takes But California woke up this morning with a sweet refrain Yellow sun beat on the window Light cut straight through the blinds It was love that broke my sorrow Like the day breaks the night Yellow sun beat on the window Light cut straight through the blinds It was love that broke my sorrow Like a day breaks a long night In a motel with a bouquet in the ice pail You can tell them I'm doing OK doing real well

She used to work in a diner Never saw a woman look finer I used to order just to watch Her float across the floor She grew up in a small town Never put her roots down Daddy always kept movin', So she did too. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair Flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with The very air she breathes The air she breathes. You know it ain't easy You got to hold on She was an unknown legend In her time Now she's dressin' two kids Lookin' for a magic kiss She gets the far-away look In her eyes. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair Flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with the very Air she breathes The air she breathes.

Get up get up get up No time to rest or run for cover Get up get up get up Before the road pulls you under Sleeping on embers breathing in rivers Waking up shivering on summer's hottest night Salt crusted sweat dries dusty pin white lines Dreaming you'll find it in the nick of time OOOOOOH Get up get up get up

No sound of a dog bark Only distant hum of cars and wind And dry leaves falling Where the light falls slant She holds the river in her hands November hits the ground A blanket of yellow and brown The rushing of the water drowns out Birdsong and highway sound She's wringing out sun-drenched hair Find her by the river alone She turns to water He turns to stone Stars above her How they shone Watching over The current pulls at her bare feet and her legs Up come a cold breeze Arched trees bend in closer watching She let the wind run his fingers through her hair Let the sun touch her skin Young brown golden He found her by the river alone She turned to water He turned to stone Stars above her How they shone Watching over Driving rain at night holds its breath under bridges The road hisses As he slows to leave the highway Streetlights shine on power lines Rain hangs like diamonds A necklace for a heavy sky on a windless night He found her by the river alone She turned to water He turned to stone Stars above her How they shone Watching over Blue smoke in the backyard Snaking high above the barn Cold blanket of stars pulls in closer The colder they are
