Joe Henry - Richard Pryor Addresses A Tearful Nation Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Sometimes I think Ive almost fooled myself
  • Sometimes I think Ive almost fooled myself--
  • Spreading out my wings
  • Above us like a tree,
  • Laughing now, out loud
  • Almost like I was free
  • I look at you as the thing I wanted most
  • You look at me and its like youve seen a ghost
  • I wear the face
  • Of all this has cost:
  • Everything you tried to keep away from me,
  • Everything I took from you and lost
  • Lights shine above me, theyre like your eyes above the street
  • Lights shine below me, theyre like stars beneath my feet
  • I stood on your shoulders
  • And I walked on my hands,
  • You watched me while I tried to fall
  • You cant bear to watch me land
  • Take me away, carry me like a dove
  • Take me away, carry me like a dove
  • Love me like youre lying
  • Let me feel you near,
  • Remember me for trying
  • And excuse me while I disappear
