Lucinda Williams - Sharp Cutting Wings (Song to a Poet) lyrics
[Lucinda Williams - Sharp Cutting Wings Song to a Poet lyrics]
You're the one I've been waitin' for
Let's fly away to some foreign country
Where nobody knows who we are
I wish I had a ship to sail the waters
I wish I had about a hundred dollars
But I just stand with this glass in my hand
Feelin' like nothin' even matters
Your words run through me like
The blood in my veins
I could swear I knew your love
Before I knew your name
Before I knew your name
Every day I miss your smilin' face
No one here can ever take your place
The sun can shine down over my town
But it never shines on my days
I told all the stars above
I'm gonna shower you with my love
I won't demand you, I try to understand you
My love is as free as a dove
Your words run through me like
The blood in my veins
I could swear I knew your love
Before I knew your name
Before I knew your name
You're the one, you're my shinin' star
You're the one I've been waitin' for
Let's fly away to some foreign country
Where nobody knows who we are
