Cross My Fingers Lyrics - My Kind Of Town: The Lost 1993 Chicago Broadcast - John Hiatt

Baby when I put my mind to it 

I slip into another gear 

And I travel in another syncopation 

When all I wanna be is here with you 

And 

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

I'll be good to you cross my fingers 

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

Sure as a snake along the river 

Sure as a ghost is in the trees 

There is a promise love delivers 

Even though you never promised me

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

I'll be good to you cross my fingers 

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

I wanna stay, 'til my thoughts are okay 

'Til my motive is clear, 'cause im driftin away 

From the weight of your arms, from your soft feather bed 

To a cold white line down the highway in my head 

All our little tears are icicles 

Hangin' on the telephone lines 

And I call you up through all the cracklin' static 

I swear I only hear you half the time 

No matter how I try to hold you baby 

You only seem to slip away from me 

And then we're walkin out along the ocean 

Or swimmin like the dolphins out to sea

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

I'll be good to you cross my fingers 

I'll be true to you cross my fingers 

I'll be good to you cross my fingers 

Cross my fingers
