Indigo Girls – If You Live Like That lyrics

You say you want to live for today
Before today is lost
But when the returns come in
Do they balance the cost
I can see your four wheels spin
I can smell smoke from the blaze
But we arent moving anyway
If youre seeing past rose colored shades

If you live like that
Don't look back
Cause its cold
And its mighty
It may turn your back
Blood on the tracks baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks baby
I said don't look back

I see it all around
People want it good and want it fast
As long as it moves you for the moment
It doesn't matter if it lasts
But our love is sweet
It can drive me to my knees
But we still got troubles you and I
Seeing the forest for the trees

If you live like that
Don't look back
Cause its cold
And its mighty
It may turn your back
Blood on the tracks baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks baby
I said don't look back

I've had enough of these two lives
You say youll give to me
I've had enough of your freedom
You know I want to feel free
I've had enough gospel
I could spin my head around
I said if youre so caught up in heaven
You don't even see the ground

If you live like that
Don't look back
Cause its cold
And its mighty
It may turn your back
Blood on the tracks, baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks, baby
I said don't look back

All we need is to take time
(slow down, new way)
See tomorrow in plain sight
(new dawn, new day)
New horizon in plain view
And were oiling up the engine
To put you straight on through

If you live like that
Don't look back
Oh no cause its cold
And its mighty
It may turn your back
Blood on the tracks baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks baby
I said don't look back

Blood on the tracks baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks baby
I said don't look back
Oh theres blood on the tracks baby
Blood on the tracks
Blood on the tracks baby
Don't look back
Don't look back
If you live like that
