Lyrics
GREAT BIG WINGS
©2000 Carey Moore
A tear tumbles to the table by my coffee cup.
Dawn is creeping through the kitchen blinds.
I've got an empty box of Kleenex, an ashtry full of butts.
And the feeling that I'm 'bout to lose my mind.
She's been gone a month and every night's like this.
What's it gonna take to get over it?
CHORUS:
I need GREAT BIG WINGS.
Wider than this heartache.
To come and rescue me and keep me somewhere safe.
If I'm gonna fly again. If I'm gonna get through this thing.
I need GREAT BIG WINGS.
Standing in the shower, I say a little prayer.
That I can make it through the day at work.
I hear a noise and wonder for a second if she's there.
But the silence when I call her name just hurts.
Holding myself up against the wet tile wall, I'm scared how far down this hole I'm gonna fall.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
And if I ever get them, I'll fly all the way to heaven.
Hold my baby in my arms and never let her go.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
