|
Got ripplin' waters to wake me |
|
To be more than my woman in love |
|
All pine trees are pointin' to see easily |
|
To see heaven above |
|
Blue spruce flamin' on the grate in the evening |
|
Takes the chill away fine |
|
Cut the telephone line |
|
The story's the same |
|
There's a worn red chair by the window |
|
That you found at a sale down the way |
|
When some old women said that they |
|
Needed more room for the winter |
|
People like pullin' at the stuffing |
|
When they sit down |
|
So it passes the time |
|
Cut the telephone line |
|
The story's the same |
|
Ooh, like a bubble on a windy day |
|
Start to flutter when I hear you say |
|
That you feel too good to go away |
|
And you make me feel fine |
|
And you made the world a warmer place |
|
By the sparkle of your diamond face |
|
On a gray spot with a little lace |
|
And you make me feel fine |
|
Warm as a mountain in sunshine |
|
On the edge of the snowline |
|
In a meadow of columbine |
|
Oh little Gennifer |
|
I'd give a penny for |
|
What you've got on your mind |
|
Seems like most of the time you're lyin' there dreamin' |
|
Maybe in your vision you see how |
|
Our mission is slightly less than divine |
|
Cut the telephone line |
|
The story's the same |
|
Now, ripplin' waters flow through the ceiling |
|
And the walls there, their keepin' me warm |
|
And the closest I've been with my family for days |
|
Is my music |
|
But the silently stare in the morning sky |
|
Is like hearing her calling my name |
|
Cut the telephone line |
|
The story might change |
|
Ooh, like a bubble on a windy day |
|
Start to flutter when I hear you say |
|
That you feel too good to go away |
|
And you make me feel fine |
|
Warm as a mountain sunshine |
|
On the edge of the snowline |
|
In a meadow of columbine |
|
