Struck Lyrics - Singles - Joe Henry

I've been having wicked thoughts 

Terribly wicked, selfish and cruel 

Imagining I stood high on a ledge 

And fell just out of the reach of you 

And then, we are together alone 

As I fall, you look up? 

Looking for all the world, like for once 

It was you, not me, who had been struck 

Should I love you more than I do? 

Or pray to love you less 

Or learn to live with the little you give 

Believing it all for the best 

Will I ever see your heart 

Open wide and your eyes shut 

Looking for all the world, like for once 

It was you, not me, who had been struck 

The trees are angry, toss in the wind 

Devour small planes going by 

Dropping wreckage, bags and gloves 

Down around us where we lie 

I hear your uneasy breath 

As you stir, but don't wake up 

Looking for all the world, like for once 

It was you, not me, who had been struck 

That had been struck...that had been struck...that had been struck
