Mary Chapin Carpenter - Between Here And Gone Lyrics

Tonight the moon came out it was nearly full.

Way down here on earth i could feel it's pull.

The weight of gravity or just the lure of life

Made me want to leave my only home tonight.

Now i'm just wonderin' how we know where we belong.

Is it in a photograph or a dashboard poet's song?

Will i have missed my chance to right some ancient wrong

Should i find myself between here and gone?

Now i could grab my keys clear out in my truck

With every cent on board bringing me their luck.

An' i could drive too fast like a midnight sleeve

As if there was a way to outrun the grief.

Now i'm just wonderin' how we know where we belong.

In a song that's left behind in the dream i couldn't wake from.

Could i have felt the brush of a soul that's passing on

Somewhere in between here and gone?

Up above me

Wayward angels

A blur of wings and grace.

One for courage

One for safety

One for "just in case".

I thought a light went out but now the candle shines.

I thought my tears wouldn't stop then i dried my eyes.

And after all of this the truth that holds me here

Is that this emptiness is something not to fear.

Yeah i'll keep wondering how we know where we belong

After all the journeys made and the journeys yet to come.

When i feel like giving up instead of going on

Somewhere in between.

Yeah i'm just wondering how we know where we belong.

Is it in the arc of the moon leaving shadows on the lawn?

In the path of fireflies and a single bird at dawn

Singing in between here and gone.
