Olivia Lyrics - Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians

He left home when she was seventeen 

We came back to see her 

She was older cold and even mean 

Not like we remembered 

 

Out along the old road 

Where the Indian Paintbrush grows 

She began to cry and said she wanted us to know 

 

There were hard times 

When the family was broken 

There were hard times 

Then she lit up a smoke and said 

 

Gonna open up my umbrella and keep it off of me 

It's so easy to go somewhere 

But so hard to leave 

I move far away and still the memories find me there 

When I hear the clock and see the dust come off the chair 

 

There were hard times 

I don't wanna remember 

There were hard times 

And I don't want to see ya 

 

Let the wind and white sheet blow through the room 

I can live with the ghosts but not with you 

It was never so easy saying goodbye 

 

Sitting at a bus stop 

Waiting for euphoria 

I've heard so much bad news today 

I don't think I can take anymore 

Of the hard times 

Shadows on the horizon 

All the hard times 

Rusty glow in the sunriseOlivia 

 

Lights on the river bridge roll to the water's edge 

Filling the harbor with halos 

The night was cold and black when they were walking back 

He held her hand in the shadows 

 

My favorite 

There is so much more to see 

Why stay behind 

When you could go on with me? 

 

Icicle centuries burst into gentle breeze 

Somewhere a curse has been lifted 

She turned around in her chair and he touched her hair 

And the universe shifted 

 

My favorite 

There is so much more to see 

Why stay behind 

When you could go on with me? 

 

Olivia 

Why don't you let your heart come home? 

Olivia 

Leave those wild young boys alone 

 

Out on the stormy cliff silvery waters lift 

High with a wild wind behind them 

Vaporous rippling like a drug or a dream 

Eyes in the lamplight were shining 

 

My favorite 

There is so much more to see 

Why stay behind 

When you could go off with me? 

 

Olivia 

Won't you let your heart come home? 

Olivia 

Leave those wild young boys alone
