sparks might fly
Singer:black, mary
i cannot stop this child from touching me
i see not fault in watching her bloom
she knows where fire begins and where sparks might fly
yet i feel she may be consumed
she done turns on the b stage
she shook hands when the shoe fit
i wanna know how the land lies
i'll let you in on a secret
i did not steal away when love rode by
i did not let myself be unkind
it's so heard to say where love meets lust
i often think i'm losing my mind
i trade notes with the press league
they send back their suggestions
i wanna know where i come from
but all i get are directions
it takes two flagons of courage
you wind up going nowhere
i see my brother's face grow dark with care
i spend my time avoiding his gaze
i pray that god might make his dreams come true
i'd give so much to feel he's been saved
a bright spark in the playground
you don't call him a misfit
he's just stuck for an answer
