Come A Long Way Lyrics - One Lost Day - Indigo Girls

I've come a long way 

I was a show on ice 

dazzling and brittle 

but subject to the sun 

And then one day 

I went little by little 

back to the water 

the place where I'd come from 

And I went under 

like stones tied in a sack 

and I got emptied 

and started my way back 

My name 

it's got your name on it 

my shame 

it's got your name on it 

my home 

it's got your name on it 

everything I own 

and all my schemes drowned at the seams 

have left me fine in my own skin 

I've come a long way 

just to begin 

I've come a long way 

under the cover of darkness 

trusting a stranger 

a boatman at the shore 

the scourge of hope 

the ugly face of danger 

the keepers of the keys 

had me down on my knees 

in front of the gilded doors 

and in a world where every ax was poised to grind 

to find my peace I only held up what was already mine 

my name 

it's got your name on it 

my shame 

it's got your name on it 

my home 

it's got your name on it 

everything I own 

and all my swords have turned to words that blow like poems in the wind 

I've come a long way 

I used to be twisted 

when you called it an opiate 

a simple way to cope 

and yet I think you shouldn't skip if you haven't worn the shoes 

they start out tight 

and then they hurt your tired feet at night 

but then they give a little day by day 

and then before you know it 

you look back and you've come a long way 

it's got your name on it 

my shame 

it's got your name on it 

my home 

it's got your name on it 

everything I own 

you call my name 

my name 

you call my name 

my shame 

you call my name 

my home 

everything I own 

you call my name 

if it's got my name, it's got your name on it 

everything I own has got your name on it 

when I was trying to cross the river 

you were at the river getting me across and now 

everything, everything I own 

has got your name on it 

oh everything 

I've got your name on it
