willow lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm like the water when your ship rolled in that night

Rough on the surface, but you cut through like a knife

And if it was an open-shut case

I never would have known from the look on your face

Lost in your current like a priceless wine

[Chorus]

The more that you say, the less I know

Wherever you stray, I follow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

[Verse 2]

Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind

Head on the pillow, I can feel you sneakin' in

As if you were a mythical thing

Like you were a trophy or a champion ring

And there was one prize I'd cheat to win

[Chorus]

The more that you say, the less I know

Wherever you stray, I follow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

You know that my train can take you home

Anywhere else is hollow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

[Bridge]

Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind

They count me out time and time again

Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind

But I come back stronger than a 90's trend

[Verse 3]

Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark

Show me the places where the others gave you scars

Now this is an open-shut case

I guess I should'a known from the look on your face

Every bait-and-switch was a work of art

[Chorus]

The more that you say the less I know

Wherever you stray, I follow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

You know that my train can take you home

Anywhere else is hollow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

The more that you say, the less I know

Wherever you stray, I follow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

You know that my train can take you home

Anywhere else is hollow

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man

[Outro]

Hey, that's my man

That's my man

Yeah, that's my man

Baby, every bait-and-switch was a work of art

That's my man

Hey, that's my man

I'm begging for you to take my hand

Wreck my plans, that's my man
