Wild Rivers - Safe Flight Lyrics

Love don't keep sitting on runways
Waiting on storm breaks
Signaling back and forth

Hundred feet over the tropics
We're in the cockpit
Trying to stay the course

And we fought
'Til it came down on me enough to make my knees soft
And you poured over onto me just like an eavestrough
That filled up way too fast to hold

Hearts don't keep well in a suitcase
We're tangoing two-ways
Dancing 'round where we stand

Hotel sleeps
Cold in November
Holding an ember
Looking for a place to land

And we fought
'Til it came down on me enough to make my knees soft
And you poured over onto me just like an eavestrough
That filled up way too fast to hold, oh

If we're gonna take time
If it ain't a straight line
We're playing for the same side
Hope you have a safe flight
And if we're gonna go there
I don't even know where
Babe, you were the best one
I can catch the next one

If we're gonna take time
If it ain't a straight line
We're playing for the same side

Hope you have a safe flight
And if we're gonna go there
I don't even know where
Babe, you were the best one
I can catch the next one

Have a safe flight
