Words Lyrics by Sharon O’Neill

Words: The Very Best Of Sharon O’Neill

1980

Let me out
Like the new blood at the slaughter
I've been dying to get out here for a long time now
And I can't, for the life me of think of any place I'd rather be
When I sing this song I feel inside of me

Words just a breath away from my hand
Breaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you for flying

If one day I can get that break I'm running after
I'll be moved just like a pawn before the queen
It's who you know, you know
It's that touch, it's that touch of class
And it might, it might not even last
But baby, let me ride it to thе bitter end

Words just a breath away from my hand
Brеaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you for flying
Words just a breath away from my hand
Breaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you

And I, I see blue
When I lie down and think of you
I'm already there
When we sing I, I'm already there, I'm already there

Words just a breath away from my hand
Breaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you for flying
Words just a breath away from my hand
Breaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you for flying
Words just a breath away from my hand
Breaking into tiny pieces
And we will not take a shot at you for flying
