Telephones and post cards I called you from the lobby bar on Tuesday How´s the okra coming up? And boy, I wish I had me some Save me a plate
Yeah, I´ve been sleeping alright I get a couple days in July Kiss Dad for me, I love you both, goodnight
Sparrow Oh, it wouldn´t trade nothing for the way it feels to fly It ain´t fair though How you miss the ground when you´re out here in the sky Higher than you´ve ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home
Hard rain over Fayetteville Jack and Coke, a sleeping pill Living the dream Thirty thousand feet down there
You´re waking daddy up in his chair And cutting the lights and locking the door and saying a prayer
For a sparrow Who wouldn´t trade nothing for the way it feels to fly It ain´t fair though How you miss the ground when you´re out here in the sky You´re higher than you´ve ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home
Higher than you´ve ever been Lonely like you never been Waiting on the wind to take you home Sparrow
