Fill Me Up - Shawn Colvin

Fill me up, fill me up I’m a long way from home and I don’t have a lot to say

Fill me up, fill me up cause you’re all that I’ve got and I traveled a long,

long way

Cheer me up, cheer me up cause I’m all alone and I’m takin it day by day

Cheer me up, cheer me up cause you’re all that I’ve got and I traveled a long,

long way

I’m a bell, hop an el on a busy day and I’m starting at sunrise

And the color of dawn from this plane that I’m on is the day breaking in your

eyes

I’m a still life from hell on a tabletop I’m a case study in French blue

And it’s clear to me now that the whole of my life I’ve been making my way to

you

And I know where you live and I know who you are

Don’t get too close and don’t go too far

Well I might be alright if I just see the light, I don’t care if the phone

don’t ring

And I know when it’s right by a voice in the night and the right shade of

tangerine

Fill me up, fill me up I’m a long way from home and I don’t have a lot to say

Cheer me up, cheer me up cause you’re all that I’ve got and I traveled a long,

long way

And I know where you live and I know who you are

So don’t get too close and don’t go too far

Don’t get too close and promise me that you’ll never go too far

Never go too far

Fill me up, fill me up I’m a long way from home and I don’t have a lot to say

Fill me up, fill me up cause you’re all that I got and I traveled a long,

long way

Cheer me up, cheer me up cause I’m all alone and I’m takin it day by day

Fill me up, fill me up cause you’re all that I’ve got and I’ve traveled a long,

long way

But I’ve traveled a long, long way

Yeah I traveled a long, long way
