about

lyrics by John Hiatt
from his Crossing Muddy Waters album
if you don't have this record....get it!

lyrics

I'd been sleeping for some hours
Just woke up and you were there
Like the morning, like the flowers
Sunlight whispering in my ear
Red tail hawk shooting down the canyon
Put me on that wind he rides
I will be your true companion
When we reach the other side

I will try and I will stumble
But I will fly, he told me so
Proud and high or low and humble
Many miles before I go

Can't decide which way to travel
On the ground or in the sky
All my schemes have come unraveled
All that's left is you and I

And I will try and I will stumble
but I will fly, he told me so
Proud and high or low and humble
Many miles before I go

there's ghosts on the trees
there's ghosts on the wires
Asking questions and showing signs
Shivering with truth they are lighting fires
Lighting fires all down the line

And I will try, and I will stumble
But I will fly, he told me so
Proud and high or low and humble
Many miles before I go
