lyrics

Hair as black as a raven’s wing
Spread across the pillow
While she’s soaring through a world of dreams
Crying softly in her sleep
Looked over from the bed beside
Glowing blue in the tv light
She says she’s ready to change her life
I could never count the ways she already changed mine

Little as a tinker bell
Mean as hell
Pretty as the lightning in the midwest
That cracks the sky into electric blue
Beautiful and dangerous

In the old house kitchen she’d be
Sitting on the floor and laughing so loud
You couldn’t help but smiling
Even if you missed the joke

Back in San Francisco she was
Dancing in a peep show I would feed my dollars in
And you could feel her healing light
When the curtain was rising

Little as a tinkerbell
Mean as hell
Pretty as the lightning in the midwest
That cracks the sky into electric blue
Beautiful and dangerous

If I let you go
How far will you go
And how will I know
But if I hold you close
Will I sink like a stone
There’s a light you shine
Cozy and warm
But we all know the story of the girl
Who flew too close to the sun
