"Sharp Cutting Wings (Song To A Poet)"
(feat. Leslie Stevens)

You're the one, you're my shining star
You're the one I've been waiting for
Let's fly away to some foreign country
Where nobody knows who we are

I wish I had a ship to sail the waters
I wish I had about a hundred dollars
But I just stand with this drink in my hand
Feeling like nothing even matters

Your words run through me like the blood in my veins
I could swear I knew your love before I knew your name

Every day I miss your smiling face
No one here could ever take your place
The sun can shine down over my town
But it never shines on my days

I told all the stars above
That I'm gonna shower you with my love
I won't demand you, I'll try and understand you
Our love is as free as a dove

Your words run through me like the blood in my veins
I could swear I knew your love before I knew your name
Before I knew your name

You're the one, you're my shining star
You're the one I've been waiting for
Let's fly away to some foreign country
Where nobody knows who we are
