The Wire
Nora Jane Struthers
The truth is I didn't see the wire until I saw the bird
I didn't understand my own desire until I said the words
I couldn't find the soil while I was digging in the dirt
Yeah the truth is I didn't see the wire until I saw the bird
Oh I knew there was something there
Oh I felt myself breathing though I could not see the air
The truth is that I am ashamed it took finding him to open my eyes
You held my gaze so tight, I couldn't fell it was shrinking in size
Just a few months in his love, I was revived
Yea the truth is that I am ashamed I didn't realize
Oh I knew there was something there
Oh I felt myself breathing though I could not see the air
Oh I knew there was something there
Oh I felt myself breathing though I could not see the air
