Least Complicated Lyrics


I sit two stories above the street
It's awful quiet here since love fell asleep
There's life down below me though
The kids are walking home from schoolSome long ago when we were taught
That for whatever kind of puzzle you got
You just stick the right formula in
A solution for every foolI remember the time when I came so close to you
Sent me skipping my class and running from school
And I bought you that ring 'cause I never was coolWhat makes me think I could start clean slated?
The hardest to learn was the least complicatedOh I just sit up in the house and resist
And not be seen until I cease to exist
A kind of conscientious objection
A kind of dodging the draftThe boy and girl are holding hands on the street
And I don't want to but I think you just wait
It's more than just eye to eye
Learn the things I could never applyI remember the time when I came so close with you
I let everything go it seemed the only truth
And I bought you that ring, it seemed the thing to doWhat makes me think I could start clean slated?

The hardest to learn was the least complicated
So what makes me think I could start clean slated?
The hardest to learn was the least complicatedI'm just a mirror of, a mirror of myself
All the things that I do
And the next time I fall I'm gonna have to recall
It isn't love, it's only something newI sit two stories above the street
It's awful quiet here since love fell asleep
There's life down below me though
The kids are walking home from schoolI remember the time when I came so close with you
Sent me skipping my class and running from school
And I bought you that ring 'cause I never was coolWhat makes me think I could start clean slated?
The hardest to learn was the least complicated
So what makes me think I could start clean slated?
The hardest to learn was the least complicated
The least complicated
The least complicated

The Indigo Girls are Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. They met on the playground in grammar school in Decatur, Georgia, USA, and have been playing together since high school.

Their first release in 1985 was a seven-inch single named "Crazy Game", with the B-side "Everybody's Waiting (for Someone to Come Home)". That same year, the Indigo Girls released a six-track Extended play album named "Indigo Girls", and in 1987 released their first full-length album, Strange Fire, recorded at John Keane Studio in Athens, Georgia, and including "Crazy Game". With this release, they secured the services of Russell Carter, who remains their manager to the present; they had first approached him when the EP album was released, but he told them their songs were "immature" and they were not likely to get a record deal.

They were signed to Epic Records in 1989 and won the Grammy for best contemporary folk album later that year (for their self titled release) Some of their hit songs include "Galileo," "Closer to Fine," and "Shame on You."

Aside from being musicians, Ray and Saliers are activists, constantly supporting causes like gun control, women's rights, Native American rights, environmental protection, the abolition of the death penalty, and as lesbians themselves, LGBT rights. They constantly devote their time and money to such causes, often playing benefit concerts.

Ray and Saliers both have side projects. Ray owns and founded Daemon Records, an independent label based in Decatur. She also has a career as a solo artist, and has released two albums thus far. Saliers is the part owner of Watershed, a restaurant and wine bar in Decatur.

Together, the Indigo Girls are constantly touring. Their new album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, was released March 24, 2009.
