Lyrics: Shawn Colvin. Live '88. Stranded.
Was it really two summers ago
Or was it outer space?
We both had nowhere to go
In search of a state of grace
Yeah, all in all we never had time
When we met each other
We stopped on a dime
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Yeah
Floating nowhere, suspended in dreams
We were side by side
And we both had to see what it means
Whenever two worlds collide
Oh, and all in all the pieces were scattered
A world so small
That nothing else mattered
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Oh
Was it really two light years past?
We left the atmosphere
We both had to catch our breath
Somewhere way down here
Oh, yeah and all in all and by and by
The tears for forgiveness
Will hang out to dry
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Yeah
Or was it outer space?
We both had nowhere to go
In search of a state of grace
Yeah, all in all we never had time
When we met each other
We stopped on a dime
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Yeah
Floating nowhere, suspended in dreams
We were side by side
And we both had to see what it means
Whenever two worlds collide
Oh, and all in all the pieces were scattered
A world so small
That nothing else mattered
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Oh
Was it really two light years past?
We left the atmosphere
We both had to catch our breath
Somewhere way down here
Oh, yeah and all in all and by and by
The tears for forgiveness
Will hang out to dry
Stranded
Ooh, stranded
Yeah
Live '88
