Indiana lyrics
She came into this world
On a cold night, Indiana
Poppa turned his head and said
I don't believe she's mine
Single momma raised her in a place
Where you look but never touch
We don't have enough
Don't let your hopes get high
'Cause girls like you can't fly
Long nights and small roads
Big dreams, oh Indiana
You're only dying here
And they don't understand you
Tough road but you start slow
And before you know it, you're not alone
Looking for a place called home
Anywhere, oh Indiana
She tended bar
In New York City, oh Indiana
People turned their heads and said
Baby, you sure look fine
They put her on TV and then they told her
You're going to be a star
You can go so far
You let your hopes get high
'Cause girls like you can fly
Long nights and small roads
Big dreams, oh Indiana
You're only dying here
And they don't understand you
And before you know it
You're not alone
Looking for a place called home
Anywhere, oh Indiana
Big dreams are flying machines
And they'll take you wherever you want to go
Sometimes you find what's real is inside
And you don't have to go away
To find your way home
She turned around
And she stopped running, oh Indiana
She found a place and the answer to her prayers
She found that answer in her children
When she takes them to the place
Where they can have some peace
She lets their hopes get high
'Cause anyone, anyone can fly
Long nights, long nights
Big dreams, oh Indiana
You're only dying here
And then they don't understand you
Tough road but you start slow
And before you know it
You're not alone
Looking for a place called home
Anywhere, oh Indiana
Oh Indiana, yeah
She's going back to Indiana
Oh yeah, back to Indiana
She came into this world
On a cold night, Indiana
Poppa turned his head and said
