Indigo Girls
Power of Two (Live)
[Intro: Emily Saliers, Amy Ray, Tom Calderon]
I took classical guitar lessons for a year when I was twelve years old. 
Big impact. 
And then I stopped taking it. I did it for my Dad, really. But I have no regrets. 'Cause uh, it was really good for my technique, and you can always benefit from working your hands in that way. It was very difficult, actually, it took a lot of practice and discipline. So it was good. 
It's not necessary, though, it's not like—
No, it's definitely not necessary. 
It helps to do some kind of training, but it's not, it's not necessary. 
Well, let's see if that training paid off. Can you guys, uh, play a song for us live right now?
Yeah, maybe. 
We gotta take our headphones off. 
This is uh, they're gonna do for us right now, "Power of Two," on Modern Rock Live. 

[Verse 1]
Now the parking lot is empty
Everyone's gone someplace
I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed
A cooler and a two-day suitcase
'Cause there's a place we like to drive
Way out in the country
And five miles out of the city limit we're singing
And your hand's upon my knee

[Chorus]
So we're okay, we're fine
Baby, I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take 'em apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two
[Verse 2]
You know the things that I am afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well
Because I've seen the shadows of so many people
Still trying on the treasures of youth
But a road that fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth

[Chorus]
'Cause we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take 'em apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

[Bridge]
All the shiny little trinkets of temptation (Make new friends)
Something new instead of something old (But keep the old)
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface (But remember)
And it's fool's gold (What is gold)
Fool's gold (What is gold)
Fool's gold (What is gold)
[Verse 3]
And now we're talking about a difficult thing
Your eyes are getting wet
But I took us for better and I took us for worse
Don't you ever forget it
And now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
The closer I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free

[Chorus]
So we're okay, we're fine
Baby, I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take 'em apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

[Outro]
Thank you.
