Dar Williams Iowa Lyrics:
I've never had a way with women, but the hills of
Iowa make me wish that I could, And Ive never
found a way to say I love you, but if the chance
came by, oh I, I would, But way back where I come
from, we never mean to bother, We dont like to
make our passions other peoples concern, And we
walk in the world of safe people, and at night we
walk into our houses and burn.

Iowa oh ooo oh, Iowa oh ooooh ooo oh I-Iowa

How I long to fall just a little bit, to dance out
of the lines and stray from the light, But I fear
that to fall in love with you is to fall from a
great and gruesome height. So I asked a friend

about it, on a bad day, her husband had just left
her, She sat down on the chair he left behind, she
said, "What is love, where did it get me?
Whoever thought of love is no friend of
mine."

Ioway oh ooo oh, Iowa oh ooooh ooo oh I-Iowa

Once I had everything, I gave it up for the
shoulder of your driveway and the words Ive never
felt. And so for you, I came this far across the
tracks, ten miles above the limit, and with no
seatbelt, and Id do it again, For tonight I went
running through the screen doors of discretion,
For I woke up from a nightmare that I could not
stand to see, You were a-wandering out on the
hills of Iowa and you were not thinking of me.

Ioway oh ooo oh, Iowa oh ooooh ooo oh I-Iowa Ioway
oh ooo oh, Iowa oh ooooh ooo oh I-Iowa
