Dar Williams - In Love But Not At Peace Lyrics

Send "In Love But Not At Peace" ringtone to your cell

Love took a long time it followed me here

And it landed on light feet and it whispered in my ear

Love spoke of my past as a valuable test

And smiled and said she who loves last loves best

'Cause you know life is hard but now you also know your mind

So now you're going out to love but on your own side this time

Where you still think of famine and you still dig up train fare

And you won't mind the wrinkles 'cause you know how they got there

In love but not at peace in love but not at peace

Once for me love was the boat inside of a bottle it felt like a gondola ride

When you float with the nicknack's and you don't hear a sound

Where the fish never lived and you don't miss the ground

Then the moon hangs above like a Valium pill

And I say I'll be fine but I don't think that I will

But today I got work and I like it that way

It's a case of a still life gone cine a verit

In love but not at peace in love but not at peace

And I still need the beauty of words sung and spoken

And I live with the fear that my spirit will be broken

And that's the way I thought it would be

That's the way I always wanted it to be

So I'll keep you wondering what time I'm arriving

You drive me crazy with your backseat driving

And I'll talk in my sleep and you'll steal all the covers

We'll argue it out and we'll call ourselves lovers

And I'll stay in my body and you'll stay in your own

'Cause we know that we're born and we're dying alone

So turn out the light while the sirens are screaming

And we kiss for the waking and then join the dreaming

In love but not at peace in love but not at peace
