1. Thanks for the wings but I'll take them back to the shop in the clouds.
Thanks for the wings but the angels can put them back on the shelf.
CH: I don't need your love to guide me anymore.
I don't need your love to hold me anymore.
2. I'm back in the mud but it's squelching so softly around as I dance.
I've lost both my shoes, but it's soft and it's warm and I can feel the ground.
CH: I don't need your love to guide me anymore
I don't need your love to hold me anymore.
I found a ribbon by my bed that used to tie your hair.
I wonder how you wear it now and I know I shouldn't care.
3. The walls that keep rising before me have lots of beautiful cracks.
Now that I cannot fly over I'm learning to climb and you see:
CH: I don't need your love to guide me anymore
I don't need your love to hold me anymore.
4. I feel the storm coming and I'm scared of the wind that's bending the trees.
But I keep walking and the cornet is playing a recurrent thought:
CH: I don't need your love to guide me anymore
I don't need your love to hold me anymore.
I wish we'd been living in a place where everything would just stay.
The rain is laughing in my face - we can't stop - panta rei
5. The dreams in my street have secretly opened their windows and doors.
And somewhere there on the old wall there is a bronze plaque that reads:
CH: : I don't need your love to guide me anymore
I don't need your love to hold me anymore. 2x
Thanks for the wings...
