John Hiatt - Cross My Fingers Lyrics
Baby when I put my mind to itI slip into another gearAnd I travel in another syncopationWhen all I wanna be is here with youAndIll be true to you cross my fingersIll be good to you cross my fingersIll be true to you cross my fingersSure as a snake along the riverSure as a ghost is in the treesThere is a promise love deliversEven though you never promised meIll be true to you cross my fingersIll be good to you cross my fingersIll be true to you cross my fingersI wanna stay, til my thoughts are okaytil my motive is clear, cause Im driftin awayFrom the weight of your arms, from your soft feather bedTo a cold white line down the highway in my headAll our little tears are iciclesHangin on the telephone linesAnd I call you up through all the cracklin staticI swear I only hear you half the timeNo matter how I try to hold you babyYou only seem to slip away from meAnd then were walkin out along the oceanOr swimmin like the dolphins out to seaIll be true to you cross my fingersIll be good to you cross my fingersIll be true to you cross my fingersIll be good to you cross my fingersCross my fingers
