I wish I could play the part
Of the one who lifts your heart
I wish I could be nice and kind
But I ain't got that in mind

Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay
Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay

Just wake me up before you go
Kiss me lips and I will know
Your parting is sweent and tender and true
And once again I'll come home to you

Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay
Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay

And the amber sky is full of me
The whole damn sea is full of me
And I ask why oh baby can't you see
It's you I want to fill with me

Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay
Y'see, I plucked my wings away
Seems like I'm in the ground to stay
