The Wing And The Wheel (Live|1988 Anderson Fair) - Nanci Griffith

Written by：Nanci Griff

The wing and the wheel they carry things away

Whether it's me that does

The leavin' or the love that flies away

The moon outside my window

Looks so lonely tonight

Oh there's a chunk out of it's

Middle big enough for an old fool to hide

Where are all the dreamers that I used know

We used to linger beneath street

Lamps in the halos and the smoke

The wing and the wheel came to carry them away

Now they all live out in the suburbs where their dreams

Are in their children at play

There's a pale sky in the east all the

Stars are in the west

Oh here's to all the dreamers

May our open hearts find rest

The wing and the wheel are gonna carry us along

And we'll have memories for company

Long after the songs are so long
