Sharp Cutting Wings (song To A Poet) Lyrics - Singles - Lucinda Williams

You're the one you're my shinin' star 

You're the one I've been waiting 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'll just stand with this glass in my hand 

Feeling like nothing 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 

Everyday I miss your smiling face 

No one here can ever take your place 

The sun can shine down over my town 

But it never shines in my days 

I told all the stars above 

I'm gonna shower you with my love 

I won't demand you I'll try to understand you 

My love is 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 waiting for 

Let's fly away to some foreign country 

Where nobody knows who we are
