Ten Cent Wings Lyrics

If I knew what I was after, I'd remember where I'd been
If I was sure of something better, I'd go, I'd go
But I am just another picture, and I watch myself like you
I imagine what you're thinking,
I know, I know

ten cent wings, I'll take two
pin them to my sweater and I'll sail above the blue
ten cent wings tried and true
orbiting like satellites I'll sail away with you

I will love across the borders, I will wait until it's dark
I will fly and you'll be with me, my wings, your heart
Then our memory may fail us, and our language will go too
But the shooting stars will catch our
Celestial view

ten cent wings, I'll take two
pin them to my sweater and I'll sail above the blue
ten cent wings, I'll be true
orbiting like satellites I'll sail away with you

But I'll never tell, I'll never say, I'll never be that brave

Ten cent wings, I'll take two
pin them to my sweater and I'll sail above the blue
ten cent wings tried and true
In another life you are with me, and I'm with you
Ten cent wings, I'll take two
pin them to my sweater and I'll sail above the blue
ten cent wings, tried and true
In another life you are with me and I'm with you

Cover art for Ten Cent Wings lyrics by Jonatha Brooke

I always get the most wonderful picture of floating across a perfect blue ocean through a perfect blue sky with the sun catching the tin of a chaep pair of wings pinned to my sweater. Lovely imagery in this song to accompany her lovely voice.
