Lyrics Fugitive - Indigo Girls

Fugitive

I’m harboring a fugitive, a defector of a kind
She lives in my soul drinks of my wine
And I’d give my last breath to keep us alive
Are they coming for us with cameras or guns?
We don’t know which but we gotta run
You say, «This is not what I bargained for»
So hide yourself for me
All for me
We swore to ourselves we’d go to the end of the world
But I got caught up in the whirl and the twirl of it all
A day in the Sun dancing alone
Baby, I’m so sorry now
Now it’s coming to you the lessons I’ve learned
Won’t do you any good;
you’ve got to get burned
The curse and the blessing they’re one in the same
Baby, it’s all such a treacherous gain
Hide yourself from me
I said hide yourself from me
All for me
I stood without clothes danced in the sand
I was aching with freedom kissing the damned
I said remember this as how it should be
Baby, I said it’s all in our hands
Got to learn to respect what we don’t understand
We are fortunate ones, fortunate ones, I swear
So hide yourself for me
I will hide myself for you
All for you
I stood without clothes danced in the sand
I was aching with freedom kissing the damned
I said remember this as how it should be
