Indigo Girls - Burn All The Letters Lyrics

Burn All The Letters  Song Lyrics
Burn All The Letters  by Indigo Girls i am sorry that i set my sights

on the things i read

something meant for your husband

maybe you left it under the bed

once upon a love those words blew free and secret

the pages lay around

drifted to the hands of the publisher

and the greedy generations on down

burn all the letters

(someone is always watching)

the government's on the phone

(whether openly or secretly)

burn all the letters

(now breathe life)

send them on

(into your story)

to a safer home

(i said burn it to secrecy)

burn all the letters

brand them in you before you go

soldiers are coming to plunder

but there are some things they will never know

we made our love out of dignity

dug our nails in the dirt

(hung our towel soaked souls out on the line)

hung our towel soaked souls out on the line

we loved so hard that it hurt

to ease my pain i took a pen and paper

incarnate came the bleeding

send it back before the public eye

perverts it in the reading

and burn all the letters

(someone is always watching)

ah the government's on the phone

(whether openly or secretly)

burn all the letters

(now breathe life)

send them on back

(into your story)

to a safer home

(i said burn it to secrecy)

burn all the letters

brand them in you before you go

the soldiers coming to plunder

but there are some things they will never know

burn all the letters

ah the government's on the phone

on the phone

burn all the letters

(all the letters)

send them on to a safer home

(send them on to a safer home)

burn all the letters

to you

and you to

to me

coming to take what they can

they cannot read

what they cannot see

mmm
