Lyrics Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt

Under the Falling Sky

Warm and lovely mystery, fire smiling through

Before this moment fades away I want to know you

I've got lightening in my pocket, thunder in my shoe

Have no fear I've got something here I want to show you

Low, under the falling sky

Easily we will lie

While I bring it to you

It's a low road, a high wire going from me to you

And in your eyes the distance left is closing

I've got a feeling in my oceans

Blood underneath my skin

That into your bright fields this prison is opening

Our shadows wake each day though they don't know why

They hope and try -- live and die

So leave them in their frozen world

Come and be my lover

If only for one stolen moment

We will live forever

Warm and lovely mystery, can you hear the choir?

Voices can no longer hold my desire

Just abandon your sad history and meet me in the fire

Angels wait to take me higher and higher

Higher and higher
