"Wings" lyrics - TORI AMOS

TORI AMOS
"Wings"

You've been suffering
Hiding your pain
Unshed tears on the edge
"Just water under the bridge" you say

Is it too late
To make myself
A safe place
I could not see
The dangers
The sacrifices
You were making

Hurt you
Hurt me
Hurt you

Never meant to hurt you
Hurt me
I need
To make myself
A safe place
For you
To cry baby
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry

So we built you some wings
To help you to flee
From your demanding
Dark angel
And me

Is it too late
To make myself
A safe place
I pushed too far
When we flew too
Close
To our star

It hurt you
Hurt me
Hurt you
Never meant to hurt you
Hurt me
I need
To make myself
A safe place
For you
To cry baby
To cry baby
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry
