From the recording Promise to Harry
Driving, fock-folk-Americana love story with a classic backbeat. Think Heartbreakers with acoustic guitars. Sometimes things go right, in spite of it all!
Lyrics
Tried to run down a dead-end street
Tried to blow us to smithereens
Even showed you my evil twin
You were crazy to let me in
Backing into a real good thing
Girl you just don’t know
Flying home on a broken wing
Here we go
Don’t you care what your old friends say
Bet you’re making a big mistake
Buying in on a long-shot plan
Put a shine on a scuffed-up man
Backing into a real good thing
Girl you just don’t know
Flying home on a broken wing
Here we go
It’s a pity but I was never good to myself
You made me look at the world like I was somebody else
Somebody taking a chance and I don’t even know why
Backing into a real good thing
Girl you just don’t know
Flying home on a broken wing
Here we go… we go… we go…
