Lyrics The Wallflowers

The Wallflowers

One Set of Wings

It doesn't have to be pretty

It doesn't have to move the crowd

In no particular city

Just a clearing with little else around

It doesn't have to look steady

Don't really care on which side of town

I've been rocked and now I'm ready

I am only trying to get this thing down

I am only trying to get this thing down

It's more a holdout than a bust

Head to your knees and soldier up

It's too little and too much at once

I don't think they're water landing us

And one set of wings just will not be enough

It shouldn't have to be a scandal

It's not a missile you're trying to stop

I have been shook had more than a few shots

Been hooked longer than not

Don't be secret to me now

Are you roses or burial ground

I have been lost and I'm ready to be found

I am only trying to get this thing down

I am only trying to get this thing down

It's more a holdout than a bust

Head to your knees and soldier up

It's too little and too much at once

I don't think they're water landing us

And one set of wings just will not be enough

From where you are it must seem crazy

This weaving in and out of clouds

It's not an airstrike believe me

I am only trying to get this thing down

I am only trying to get this thing down

It's a more a holdout than a bust

Head to your knees and soldier up

It's too little and too much at once

I don't think they're water landing us

And one set of wings just will not be enough
