jagged forgiving farewell to a lost lover

lyrics

The Map
©1996 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

Take this map and walk out of here
There's nothing I can give you
Nothing more than this

Take these arms and wrap them around you
They'll keep you warm forever
Wherever you may go
Wherever you may go

CHORUS
All that I ask is that sometimes you look down
All that I ask is that you keep your eyes on the ground
For me
Keep them on the ground
For me
Keep them on the ground

Take these eyes from the back of my head
They'll be your eyes in darkness when there's no end in sight
Take these words - they've said all they can
When you call and no one hears you, take them out again

CHORUS
