"Long Distance Winner" lyrics

Andrew Bird & Madison Cunningham Lyrics

"Long Distance Winner"
(originally by Buckingham Nicks)

Sunflowers and your face fascinate me
You love only the tallest trees
I come running down the hill
But you're fast, you're the winner
Long distance winner

Not unlike the blue white fire
You burn brightly in spite of yourself
I bring the water down to you
But you're too hot to touch
Yeah, you're too hot to touch

Love somebody, save their soul
Tie them to your heaven, erase their hell
Love their lifestyle if you feel it
Don't try to change them, you never will

Sunflowers and your face fascinate me
You go into the dusty pink day
I come a-callin' unto you
But you run, you're the winner
Long distance winner

Love somebody, save their soul
Tie them to your heaven, erase their hell
Love their lifestyle if you feel it
Don't try to change them, you never will
You never will
You never will
You never will

You're the winner
You're the winner
You're the winner
You're the winner
