As The Crow Flies Lyrics - Deep Cuts - Tony Joe White

As the crow flies, baby 

Well I ain't too far from you 

As the crow flies, baby 

Well I ain't too far from you 

Yeah, but since I don't have wings 

Well I can't get home as fast as I want to 

Well, you don't know, baby 

I've missed your sweet caress 

Well, you don't know, mama 

I've missed your sweet caress, oh yeah 

Yeah, now when I'm in your lovin' arms 

Oh, I'm at my very best 

In a dream last night 

Well I heard you call my name 

In a dream last night 

Well I heard you call my name 

Yeah, I took it as an omen 

And I jumped on the very fast freight train 

As the crow flies, baby 

Well I ain't too far from you, oh no no 

As the crow flies, mama 

Well I ain't too far from you 

Yeah, but since I don't have wings 

Well I can't get home as fast as I want to
