You Are Everyone Lyrics

Dar Williams

I went and found a house in the northern woods,
And I was doing fine until the night.
But then I couldn't take the sun in Los Angeles,
Everything was blazing much too bright.
I know that I should sit out on a darkened pier,
Feeling the life that is not lived by chance,
And yes I know it's just blousy old Hollywood,
Jostling for one more song and dance.
But you are everyone, you are everyone
I ever trusted that never made a fool out of me.

Early again today I rushed myself around,
I thought that I would miss the morning train,
Angry that I had lain in my bed too long
Watching all the patterns of the rain.
So many trips I took to seek somebody out,
Gaining some ground but maybe losing more.
So many pages scrawled to justify myself,
I don't know who I did that for.
But you are everyone, you are everyone
I ever trusted that never made a fool out of me.

You took a couple pictures of me once,
On some winter night long ago
Simply of me, you might not call them beautiful.
I take them everywhere I go.
But you are everyone, you are everyone
I ever trusted that never made a fool out of me.
