Lyrics Rosanne Cash

Rosanne Cash

My Least Favorite Life

This is my least favorite life

The one where you fly and I don't

Kiss holds a million deceits

And lifetime goes up in smoke

This is my least favorite you

Who floats far above earth and stone

The night that I twist on the rack

Is the time that I feel most at home

We're wandering in the shade

And the rustle of falling leaves

A bird on the edge of a plate

Lost now forever, my love in a sweet memory

The station pulls away from the train

The blue pulls away from the sky

The whisper of two broken wings

Maybe they're yours, maybe they're mine

This is my least favorite life

The one where I'm out of my mind

The one where you're just out of reach

The one where I stand and you fly

I'm wandering in the shade

And the rustle of falling leaves

A bird on the edge of a plate

Lost now forever, my love in a sweet memory
