Lyrics Tony Joe White

Tony Joe White

As The Crow Flies

As the crow flies, baby

Well I ain't too far from you

As the crow flies, baby

Well I ain't too far from you

Yeah, but since I don't have wings

Well I can't get home as fast as I want to

Well, you don't know, baby

I've missed your sweet caress

Well, you don't know, mama

I've missed your sweet caress, oh yeah

Yeah, now when I'm in your lovin' arms

Oh, I'm at my very best

In a dream last night

Well I heard you call my name

In a dream last night

Well I heard you call my name

Yeah, I took it as an omen

And I jumped on the very fast freight train

As the crow flies, baby

Well I ain't too far from you, oh no no

As the crow flies, mama

Well I ain't too far from you

Yeah, but since I don't have wings

Well I can't get home as fast as I want to
