Song title: Bonnie Raitt - Longing In Their Hearts

Edit By: 216.73.216.251

Let me tell you bout a friend of mine
Hes a short order cook
Long on speed, short on spice
He reads his customers like a book
Hes seen this, and hes done that
Now hes makin fried eggs an art
But theres one thing he cant fix no how
Theres a longing in his heart

Hes tried for years to work it out
At the grill and at his home
Well he talks to his friends, talks to himself
He talks the chicken right off the bone
Talks to his woman and she understands
You know theyre always eye to eye
She runs the join, they live out back
Small house under a big sky

Well even the stars at night agree
The sky is falling apart
She knows cause she can feel it too
Theres a longing in her heart
A longing in her heart
Longing in her heart

Well now you and me, were just like them
We never wanted to be alone,
So we made a pact, sealed with desire
For a happier house and home

Only to find it doenst untie
The know where feelings die
Theres a longing deep inside our hearts
And no one to tell us why

Our friends arent looking for anything new
They wouldnt know where to look

Well her, she like running the joint
And he likes being a cook
Together theyre doing very well
Theyre might glad they could
But theres a fire burning towards them now
Coming from a distant wood

And eve the stars at night agree
That the sky is falling apart
We know cause we can feel it too
Theres a longing in our hearts
