Everything I Do Is Reckless


Abbey Lincoln Lyrics

 

Everything I Do Is Reckless by Abbey Lincoln


"Say it ain't so drew
Say it ain't so"
Oh I've been dying
Just to hear someone say
"Outstreched and open are these arms,
And we will wait if it takes all day
For you to come down"
In my spare time I built a rocket
From the ground you can't see these scenes
I took to the air just hoping
And blew myself to smithereens
The wind is what spread my ashes
The rain is what washed me clean
Looking down on the masses
Always higher I long to be
Oh won't you please just take a piece
And kindly put it in your pocket
I'd be so pleased just take a peace
Secure it tightly on a necklase
We always need to believe in something
And pray that something pulls us from the wreckage
To carry us away from this scene
And it's the break away
That's the hardest part it seems
It's the risk you take
And the life I chose to lead
It's the thoughts you have
Right before you fall asleep
It's the thoughts you have
Right before you fall
"Won't you take care Drew
Won't you take care
Oh we've been dying to hear back but you wont
Reply to signals,
Respond at all,
We've lost our patience
And we're losing the hope
That you'll ever
Come down"
"Oh, to what great lengths we go"
