Shotgun Down the Avalanche - Shawn Colvin

I’m riding shotgun down the avalanche

Tumbling and falling down the avalanche

So be quiet tonight

The stars are shining bright

On this mountain of new fallen snow

And I will raise up my voice into the void

You have left me nowhere to go

And I love you so much and it’s so bizarre

A mystery that goes on and on and on

This is the best thing

But the very most hard

How we don’t get along

After countless appeals

We keep spinning our wheels

On this mountain of new fallen snow I let go of the catch

And we are over the edge

You have left me nowhere to go

Sometimes you make me lose my will to live

And I just become a beacon for your soul

But the past is stronger than my will to forgive

Forgive you or myself, well I don’t know

I’m riding shotgun down the avalanche

Tumbling and falling down the avalanche

So be quiet tonight be sure to step lightly

On this mountain of new fallen snow

And I will raise up my voice into the void

You have left me nowhere to go

You have left me nowhere to go

You have left me nowhere to go
