Hand Me Downs
---- -- -----
(Amy Ray)

I've taken so many down, I've helped them all to dismount.
I've followed so many down, I take their hand me downs.
All with hope, all with ope that
Emptiness brings fullness and
Loss of love brings wholeness to all.

Everything that I believe crawls from underneath the streets.
Everything I truly love comes from somewhere high above.
Everything that I believe is wrong with you is wrong with me.
Everything I truly love I love in you I love me.
So give me hope, give me hope that
Emptiness brings fullness and
Loss of love brings wholeness to us all.

Swear you can't swim the river,
I saw you running to jump in.
I swore I would never by your sinner,
Until I help your sin.
Now you ask me why I'm here.
The same as you, I'm scared, it's fear.
I've become the beggar now, you've become the saint somehow.
Twist the words and place the blame, tell me now, aren't we the same?
Tripping in our yellow feet, checking underneath our sheets,
For some hope, give me hope that
Emptiness brings fullness and
Loss of love brings wholeness to us all.

Other Indigo Girls song Lyrics
  • Fill It Up Again
    "Won't have you see me as your sad sack
    Lost my something and I can't get it back
    Or a kill on your trophy rack
    I checked my schedule now my train is rolling down a track..."
  • Heartache for Everyone
    "You spent five years saying you'd come my way
    That's a little more wait than a heart can take
    Yeah now that I know it's just a fantasy
    I feel a hard time coming around for me..."
  • Free in You
    "A hard knock
    A cold clock
    Ticking off my time
    A long look..."
  • Perfect World
    "We get to be a ripple in the water
    We get to be a rock that's thrown
    We get to be a boy on the bridge
    Standing over the reservoir..."
  • All That We Let In
    "Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Oooooooo
    Dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up..."
  • Tether
    "Whatever it was, is wasn't manumission
    To spill the blood, to pull the weed
    You can bury the past, but it's a mausoleum
    With the ghost of a fist that won't let us be..."
  • Come on Home
    "Dark clouds are comin' like an army
    Soon the sky will open up and disarm me
    You will go just like you've gone before
    One sad soldier off to war, enemies that only you can see...."
  • Dairy Queen
    "I heard that you were drunk and mean
    Down at the dairy queen
    There's just enough of you in me
    For me to have sympathy..."
