Lyrics for Song: The Wing And The Wheel
Lyrics for Album: One Fair Summer Evening [2007]



The wing and the wheel they carry things away



Whether it's me that does the leavin' or the love that flies away



The moon outside my window looks so lonely tonight



Oh, there's a chunk out of it's middle big enough for an old fool to hide



Where are all the dreamers that I used know?



We used to linger beneath street lamps in the halos and the smoke



The wing and the wheel came to carry them away



Now they all live out in the suburbs where their dreams



Are in their children at play



There's a pale sky in the east all the stars are in the west



Oh, here's to all the dreamers may our open hearts find rest



The wing and the wheel are gonna carry us along



And we'll have memories for company long after the songs are gone


Album Lyrics: One Fair Summer Evening [2007]
