INDIGO GIRLS LYRICS - Keeper Of My Heart

"Keeper Of My Heart"



For you, I would tattoo me

With lines crossing into a hand,

And a heart that would never bleed.

The twilight and the horse

Drawn on my arm

Standing for an addiction,

Pray we go unharmed.

Here is my love and anger

These are my gods, these are my scars.

Here is my love and anger

My arms are burning, but they're open wide

Some things, I hold too tightly,

Some things, I'll never I'll never touch.

I'm wearing down the stones

In the river

All my life, i've painted

With anger's brush

Here is my love and anger

These are my gods, these are my scars.

Here is my love and anger

My arms are burning, but they're open wide



Oh, you precious kid

I have a motion just for you.

A warrior, barefoot and dancing

With tears of pain and beauty

All of this is true for you



Here is my love and anger

These are my gods, these are my scars.

Here is my love and anger

My arms are burning, but they're open wide

Pointing out the graveyards

I will be the reaper

If you will be

The keeper of my heart
