About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] Just like a broken marriage, when two people just don't care Like when the cupboard is empty or there's no food in the Frigidaire [Chorus 1] I'm a page from the end of the story No closer to my hope and glory Just a kick away from the heels of the wind [Verse 2] How come it gets so disturbing, when two ships pass in the storm Who knows how high the crow flies, who knows where this refugee was born [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] And just for the sake of all these reasons Rains wash out the fires within Fires that help to keep you moving Just a kick away from the heels of the wind [Verse 3] You don't deserve that treatment, I can't pretend I was that nice I'm no E ticket ride to Disneyland, I'm no cushy first class flight I'm a day behind your restless wings You, you rather have the wealth of kings Me, I'd rather be on the heels of the wind [Chorus 2] And just for the sake of all these reasons Rains wash out the fires within The fires that help to keep you moving Just a kick away from the heels of the wind[x2] [Chorus 2] And just for the sake of all these reasons Rains wash out the fires within Fires that help to keep you moving Just a kick away from the heels of the wind [Outro] Just a kick away from the heels of the wind[x3] Well mama, just a kick away, just a kick away Just a kick away from the heels of the wind
