Indigo Girls - I'll Give You My Skin (feat. Michael Stipe) Lyrics
I'll Give You My Skin" is a song written by both of the girls with Michael Stipe. I kinda suspect that the lyrics are mostly Stipe. Anyway, I'm told that it was recorded at the end of 1988, while the girls were recording their first Epic album. It appears on the "Tame Yourself" benefit compilation. Go buy it. I'll Give You My Skin.Well, you - you can sit in your high chairsHigh chairs are for childrenYou can sit in your high chairs and laughI'll give you my best faceI'll give you my freedomI'll give you my feet and my handsI'm keeping my eyesOpen, open, open to the fieldHold your dances thereTake the cropShare the yieldYou can join us togetherBreak us apartA wound in the skin is a break in the heartYou can coast on your laughterHigh shelf your heartBut laughter's for healing, not tearing apartI'm keeping my eyesOpen to the fieldsYou can hold your dances thereTake the cropShare the yieldNot a soul is lostFor collapsing the wallsYou can dance in the dustYou can walk it off, walk, walk it offIf you're fallin', you're fallin'Come callin' to meFallin', Fallin'I'll give you my skinI will give you my skinI'm keeping my eyesOpen to the field(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)You can hold your dances here(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)Take the crop, share the yield(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)I'm keeping my eyes(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)Open to the field(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)Hold your dances there(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)Take the crop, share the yield(If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to meIf you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to meI will give you my skin
