Another On The Rise

Indigo Girls · Other Songs - Indigo Girls

I was taken by surprise

I was haunted by his eyes

And the drink I came her for

Doesn't matter anymore

And the night wind falls

With the moonlight from above

Is it winter is it summer or is it love



And it's probably cold outside

But I don't really feel it no

Every hour that passes by

Is another heart healer

And you can't stop the rain from falling down

On the new leaves of summer on the ground

And for every bright star that falls from the sky

There's another

Oh another on the rise



I've been broken

I've been blind

Been afraid to look inside

But his words were soft and warm

What did I come her for

An abandoned garden lost

In bittersweet and queen anne's lace

Looked inside where a single rose grew

There I saw love's face



And it's probably cold outside

But I don't really feel it

Every hour that passes by

Is another heart healer

And you can't stop the rain from falling down

On the new leaves of summer on the ground

And for every bright star that falls from the sky

There's another

Oh another on the rise



And it's probably cold outside

But I don't really feel it

Every hour that passes by

Is another heart healer

And you can't stop the rain from falling down

On the new leaves of summer on the ground

And for every bright star that falls from the sky

There's another

Oh another on the rise

On the rise
