Kenny White - Who's Gonna Be The One lyrics

You brush against fate at least once a day, at night you tempt the ghosts Of all the close calls, i can say love scared you the most Your mother taught you to be tough, your father showed you tender But on their own neither one's enough Sometimes you fight, sometimes surrender You're gonna be the one to save the day Yeah, i believe that's what you're here to do But when the lamps go on and the day's work is done Who's gonna be the one to save you You know your story and you know it well, you've walked with kings and bums It's in between the lines you tell, that's where the real story comes With a diamond cutter's eye and nothing left to chance You don't let a soul get by without at least a pa**ing glance You're gonna be the one to save the day Yeah, i believe that's what you're here to do Though you might lose a step, you will never be outrun But who's gonna be the one to save you Y'hear the sound the hardwood makes? it moans and creaks and it bites I know those floors have felt the weight of a thousand sleepless nights Yeah, you do your best to change, they do their best to keep you silent You can carve into your deepest vein and still be stranded on monkey island And those who live by fair and just are bound to be laid low Among the few you still can trust, john coltrane, hank snow. So let's just raise a gla**: for them who time has frozen the page "to days gone by, when men were men, and all the world was not a stage" You're gonna be the one to save the day Yeah, i believe that's what you're here to do But when the last drops of bourbon mix with the rising sun Who's gonna be the one to save you Who's gonna be the one to save you Shawn pelton…drums Marty ballou…upright ba** Duke levine…guitar (l) Al anderson…guitar (r) Kenny white…resophonic guitar Tom beckham…vibes Angela reed…harmony vocal Stephen barber…string arrangement Antoine silverman…violin Johnathan dinklage…viola Anja wood…cello
