Where there is one there will be two

Now if you know me at all you know that I love music and love lyrics. Below are the lyrics to "Love Will Come to You" by the Indigo Girls. This was Nathan and my song during our infertility. I was listening to it on the el on the way home from work yesterday and was excited to know that love has come :)

Guess I wasnt the best one to ask
Me myself with my face pressed
Up against loves glass
To see the shiny toy Ive been hoping for
The one I never could afford
The wide world spins and spits turmoil
And the nations toil for peace
But the paws of fear upon your chest
Only love can soothe that beast

And my words are paper tigers
No match for the predators of pain inside her

I say love will come to you
Hoping just because I spoke the words that theyre true
As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through

Where theres now one there will be two

I was born under the sign of cancer
Like brushing cloth I smooth the wrinkles for an answer
Im always closing my eyes and wishing Im fine
Even though I know Im not this time
I say love will come to you
Hoping just because I spoke the words that theyre true
As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through
Where theres now one there will be two

Dodging your memories a field of knives
Always on the outside looking in on others lives
I say love will come to you
Hoping just because I spoke the words that theyre true
As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through
Where theres now one there will be two

And I wish her insight to battle loves blindness
Strength from the milk of human kindness
A safe place for all the pieces that scattered

Learn to pretend theres more than love that matters
