Elysium Lyrics

I don't really know how I got here this time

I was only just following orders

Listening to the voice in my mind

Saying steer clear of margins and borders

So I wasn't thinking of where we would go

On a could afternoon through the mountains we drove

Up a few hairpin turns and then spread out below

The valley appeared with the sun

Like Elysium

I looked out the window and stared at the fields

Where the blue sky and green were colliding

I looked back at you and I knew we were sealed

By a fate that has ways of providing

Yes sometimes you get there in spite of the route Losing
track of your life and what it's about
Mary Chapin Carpenter - Elysium - http://motolyrics.com/mary-chapin-carpenter/elysium-lyrics.html
The road seems to know when to straighten right out

The closer you come

To Elysium

They say there's a place for those who are good

With it's pearly gates swinging wide open

The rest of us here are just knocking on wood

Quietly, piously hoping

I could wonder if all of it led me to you

I could show you the arrows and circles I drew

I didn't have a map, it's the best I could do

On the fly and on the run

To dreams that were tethered like kites to the ground

To the bridges I burned, to then turning around

It was here in your heart I was finally found

And the last battle won for Elysium
