Indigo Girls – Little Perennials Lyrics  Share

From Indigo Girls's album: Despite Our Differences

Back in the long stretch of loneliness
I have come to call a living,
I^,m getting something for all this love^,s labor,
even when I am forgetting.

Oh we oh oh little perennials
where^,d you come from?

Daughter of my father^,s second cousin,
loyalties, I got em by the dozen.
We share a past, we share a blood relation
and that^,s as good as an invitation.

Oh we oh oh little perennials
where^,d you come from?

[ Little Perennials lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/i/indigo-girls/little-perennials/ ]
I^,m in the North Carolina Mountains,
just to the west of where I met my calling.
If you look south to the foothills of these mountains rising,
that^,s the place where it feels good falling.
That^,s the place that I know.

I look for words to fill the empty spaces,
all the life revealed in these back stages.
I reach for names like little puzzle pieces;
oh perennial, come to me.

Oh we oh oh little perennials
where^,d you come from?
