Wooden Stairs Lyrics - Cowboy Junkies

Hold your arms out to me 

And I will come eventually 

I'm hopin' for some time on the other side 

Some things just aren't meant to be 

That's the line that sets me free 

Free of all those maybes, buts, inside 

If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again 

Bury myself in your skin and hair again 

Feel myself fall into you again 

If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again

Save the place next to you 

And I will come back very soon 

Once I pick the briars from my eyes 

Some things just aren't meant to be 

That's the line that handcuffed me 

There it sits, glowin' deep inside 

If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again 

Bury myself in your skin and hair again 

Feel myself fall into you again 

If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again 

Come and whisper in my ear 

On second thought, let's make it clearer 

Tie me to my mast and sing your song 

Some things just aren't meant to be 

But here's the part that puzzles me 

Why we never choose to sing along

If we could sit upon those wooden stairs again 

Bury myself in your skin and hair again 

Feel myself fall into you again 

If we just could sit on those wooden stairs again 

Hold your arms out to me 

And I will come eventually
