Catching A Feeling

J. Cunningham
(From the album, The Song Club)

As the river made its way down to the sea
It cut a long and lonesome crooked line
And though upward reached the branches of the tree
Somehow they got all twisted up with trying
They say some things were always meant to be
And I’ve never known about that in my time
But there’s beauty in that way you look at me
And it Surely seems to ease my worried mind
It’s like…

Every second of my life didn’t add up to a minute
Never knew I had a dream but I guess you’re in it
Caught up in this feeling we could fly
So step out of and into the blue
Tell you now baby what we’re gonna do
See if there’s a ceiling in the sky
I want to
Darling I do

In this life you learn to take it on the chin
When you’re hearing all the noise but not the sound
Or when the light you thought that you were living in
Just turns out to be shadows on the ground
Oh but baby I know we were born to fly
And rise above what this old world’s been stealing
You could waste away the hours of your life
Trying to run it down and never catch this feeling
It’s like…

Every second of my life didn’t add up to a minute
Never knew I had a dream but I guess you’re in it
Caught up in this feeling we could fly
So let’s step out of and into the blue
Tell you now baby what we’re gonna do
See if there’s a ceiling in the sky
I want to
Darling I do

I want you to know
What only I have known
I want you to see
The things I’ve never shown
I want you to hear
Songs for you alone
When you took my heart
My heart found a home
And I want to
Darling I do
I want you
Darling I do
