Just like a broken marriage, when two people just don't care

Like when the cupboard is empty or there's no food in the Frigidaire

I'm a page from the end of the story

No closer to my hope and glory

Just a kick away from the heels of the wind



How come it gets so disturbing, when two ships pass in the storm

Who knows how high the crow flies, who knows where this refugee was born

I'm a page from the end of the story

No closer to my hope and glory

Just a kick away from the heels of the wind



And just for the sake of all these reasons

Rains wash out the fires within

Fires that help to keep you moving

Just a kick away from the heels of the wind



You don't deserve that treatment, I can't pretend I was that nice

I'm no E ticket ride to Disneyland, I'm no cushy first class flight

I'm a day behind your restless wings

You, you rather have the wealth of kings

Me, I'd rather be on the heels of the wind
