[00:00.00]Iowa - Carrie Elkin
[00:04.15]I've never had a way with women
[00:08.75]
[00:09.29]But the hills of Iowa
[00:12.29]
[00:12.86]Make me wish that I could
[00:17.00]
[00:18.42]And I've never found a way
[00:21.89]To say I love you
[00:23.60]
[00:24.20]But if the chance came by 
[00:27.15]Oh I  I would
[00:30.88]
[00:32.96]But way back where I come from
[00:36.19]
[00:37.36]We never mean to bother
[00:40.69]We don't like to make our passions
[00:44.60]Other peoples concern
[00:47.49]
[00:48.73]And we walk in the world of safe people
[00:54.11]And at night we walk into our houses and burn
[01:01.80]
[01:03.34]Iowa  Iowa  I  Iowa
[01:16.88]
[01:17.84]How I long to fall just a little bit
[01:22.58]
[01:23.70]To dance out of the lines
[01:26.93]And stray from the light
[01:30.95]
[01:32.10]But I fear that to fall in love with you
[01:36.92]
[01:37.51]Is to fall from a great and gruesome height
[01:45.76]
[01:46.31]So you know I asked a friend about it 
[01:50.02]
[01:50.67]On a bad day
[01:52.95]Her husband had just left her 
[01:55.78]
[01:56.43]She sat down on the chair he'd left behind
[02:01.91]She said 
[02:02.73]
[02:03.49]"What is love  where did it get me 
[02:06.84]
[02:07.47]Whoever thought of love
[02:10.69]Is no friend of mine"
[02:15.59]
[02:16.15]Iowa  Iowa  I  Iowa
[02:29.39]
[03:00.09]Once I had everything  but  I gave it up
[03:05.74]For the shoulder of your driveway
[03:09.85]And the words I've never felt
[03:12.88]
[03:14.90]So for you  I came this far across the tracks
[03:20.43]
[03:21.03]Ten miles above the limit 
[03:24.35]And with no seatbelt  and I'd do it again
[03:30.03]For tonight I went running through
[03:34.51]The screen doors of discretion
[03:37.46]
[03:38.07]For I woke up from a nightmare
[03:41.46]That I could not stand to see
[03:46.85]You were a-wandering out on the hills of Iowa
[03:52.38]
[03:53.11]And you were not thinking of me
[03:58.67]
[03:59.44]Oh I  Iowa  Iowa  I  Iowa
[04:24.45]Iowa  Iowa  I  Iowa
[04:37.48]
[04:39.85]Iowa
