Patty Griffin - No More Illusions Lyrics
Here goes everything down to the wireI'm gonna sing like a canary on fireand the world won't stop, but maybe you will stayI apologize for rocking the boatBut my heart gets caught on those lumps in my throatAnd these word just miss my lips somewhere along the wayYou and me, we got no more illusionswildcards or shadows of a doubtBut the end ain't a foregone conclusionOh baby can we live without illusionsOur long shadows cast here in the moonlightcross the lawn and fade from our sightand the world beyond is turning like a wheelEvery step we take is out of the past.Everybody says "Darling, we won't last."But they don't know what we know or feel what we feelYou and me, we got no more illusionswildcards or shadows of a doubtBut the end ain't a foregone conclusionOh baby can we live without illusionsI can't pretend that the sparks are still flyingor the ember is burning strongerAt least by now I might be getting real good at tryingCan we try a little longer?You and me, we got no more illusionswildcards or shadows of a doubtBut the end ain't a foregone conclusionOh baby can we live without illusionscourtesy of Joesi
