Shawn Phillips - One Way Ticket lyrics
Your rating:
Well I knew this was a one way ticket But you know I had to come The light that was shining from inside your soul Told me this was home You know I have to roam the world And leave you all alone I know it ain't the same as bein' there This talkin' on the phone But love wins out through sun and storm And I love you till it's wrong And all I really need from you tonight Is to know that you'll be strong And California's not that hot Though it don't have that much rain And all the greedy people and their money, Well, they'll drive you 'bout insane And the men keep fallin' all over you They'll promise you the moon But they'll break your heart from the very start And say they'll be back soon But we'll do our best like all the rest Even when the times get hard But if we keep on lovin' each other this way We'll hold the winning card And the sun shines in our eyes And there ain't much more that a man could want Than a good woman by his side You know you're a woman that inspires men's dreams To makes us carry on So keep on shinin' that light of yours And listen to this song And always try to be yourself Don't worry what the others say And I will always be right there To help you in every way So we knew this was a one way ticket But you know we had to go We found each other in a troubled world And we've done the best we know And I love you just the way you are For me you got to do the same We both are looking for some peace and freedom In this Goddamn silly game And I believe we'll make it through If we keep our feelings clear And let the wind blow through our hearts And chase out all the fears. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
