Throw Me a Line Songtext
von Carrie Newcomer

Why do I worry so much?
It can′t add a day or year
And it usually comes down
To a matter of love or fear
And I really don't know
And I can′t tell you why
One sparrow falls to the ground
And another one flies

Oh could you throw me a line
Could you take me in?
Yeah the world's spinning faster now
Than it ever has been
And what used to be sure
Up and walked out the door
And the old ways I knew
Just don't work anymore


Some days I′m a bird
Some days I am the song
And sometimes I am a storm
Some days I′m just plain wrong
There's a still quiet voice
And it sounds a little like mine
Saying you′re right where you should be
It's just gonna to take time

Oh could you throw me a line
Could you take me in?
Yeah the world′s spinning faster now
Than it ever has been
And what used to be sure
Up and walked out the door
And the old ways I knew
Just don't work anymore

When it all breaks down
When there′s nothing to lose
When there's no more to say
And there's nothing to prove
Oh yes bring it on all things living in you
You′re not just what happened
You can be something new
But what you leave to the shadows
What stays in the dark
Will grieve you and seize you
And cripple your heart


Oh could you throw me a line
Could you take me in?
Yeah the world′s spinning faster now
Than it ever has been
And what used to be sure
Up and walked out the door
And the old ways I knew
Just don't work anymore
