Sharp Cutting Wings (Song to a Poet)

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 --- Sharp Cutting Wings (Song to a Poet) - Lucinda Williams
