Warm JetsWritten by Tom Lash Performed by Hot Tin Roof Listen (45 Second MP3 Clip)Why do we always move so fast forward As times go by, it flies too quickly Fall to your knees, we fall to the earth Let me breathe, I'll breathe you in deeply We're like warm jets descending We're like warm jets descending We're like warm jets descending A smooth ride with a crash landing The way you shimmy and shake Like a sinful tune I should have known better It's a lesson learned I'll savor the smile that dims The light in my room For a fractured heartbeat and a lyric earned And I find myself searching for the words And the chords that just might lure you Into my life But if plans go astray I'll find compassion even in denial And I find myself searching for the words And the chords to explain my life Here's my true confession There's inspiration even in denial Anything I say... everything I need You're like the runaway train I chase in vain Go share the moments we shared together I'll live with the pain I lived with the pleasure |
