Wishing Chair - Fiddlin' On lyrics

How can love be so close yet stand so far away How can I speak the truth in the words I cannot say Can you hold me for another dance Will you hold me to the dawn We may never get another chance And the rest is a fiddlin' on When I was young I asked if I could play the violin They said no I had to wait to grow up to begin The first time I pulled the bow The angels beat the time That piece of wood sang to my bones Our souls were intertwined Now I tried to practice when I could but life got in my way It seems I had the good intent but not the day-to-day Life is in the things you do And not the words you say Put your fingers to the strings If you're gonna play We begin with Martin Wind, Dr. Gilbert's Fancy "All the Maids of Mitcheltown , Blackbird , and Galway Bay We're nearly done with Last Night's Fun And on to Cooley's Reel With a Crock of Gold , Lucky in Love I'll end in a Daisy's Field You speak to me with the tongues of men, I speak to you by name The only gospel that I know is things are gonna change Sing the music of your heart Sing it true and strong You may never get another chance And the rest is a fiddlin' on We begin with Martin Wind , Dr. Gilbert's Fancy "All the Maids of Mitcheltown, Blackbird, and Galway Bay We're nearly done with Last Night's Fun And on to Cooley's Reel With a Crock of Gold, Lucky in Love I'll end in a Daisy's Field I wish you faith in bigger things and not to know your end I wish you the good sense to know when you need a friend I hope the music that you make Brings a fountain to your soul I wish you a good gla** of ale And rosin for your bow We begin with Martin Wind, Dr. Gilbert's Fancy "All the Maids of Mitcheltown , Blackbird , and Galway Bay We're nearly done with Last Night's Fun And on to Cooley's Reel With a Crock of Gold , Lucky in Love I'll end in a Daisy's Field With a Crock of Gold , Lucky in Love I'll end in a Daisy's Field
