Earthbound Lyrics - Singles - Rodney Crowell

I could shed my skin and in the blink of an eye 

I could fly, fly, fly 

Tie my dreams up in a sack and lay my head down 

On the track and die, die, die 

My life's been so sweet, I just can't stand it 

I must admit, I've made out like a bandit 

Last nights conversation with a real good friend of mine 

Drinkin' wine, wine, wine 

Said fifty years of livin' and your worst mistakes forgiven 

It just takes time, time, time 

One man's lust for life brings world renown 

And the next guy can't get two feet off the ground 

He? s earthbound

Hear the wind through the tops of the trees 

(Earthbound) 

Summer sun nearly ninety degrees 

(Earthbound) 

Big ol' moon sinking down, think I might stick around 

I? m earthbound 

I knew love once way back when she had almond eyes 

And olive skin and long black hair 

She was Irish Spanish mix breed I was southeast Texas hayseed 

We were almost there 

Her daddy did not like my kind around 

My true love took the next train out of town, earthbound

Mama's boy walking home in the rain 

(Earthbound) 

Like a ship run aground I think I might stick around 

I? m earthbound 

With each new day that passes I'm in need of thicker glasses 

But it's all okay 

Someday, I'll be leaving but I just can't help believing 

That it's not today 

Every golden moment I have found 

I've done my best to run right in the ground, earthbound 

(Earthbound) 

See the sky big and beautiful blue 

(Earthbound) 

Fallen angels come callin' for you 

(Earthbound) 

Keepin' close to the ground think I might stick around
