WALLFLOWERS
Miscellaneous
If You Never Got Sick
Album: Red Letter Days
That ainât a parachute
That ainât a rip cord
That ainât a body of water
Weâre headed for
Thereâs so little time left
So much to be done
Even you are gonna need someone
That ainât a trick of light
Or the morning haze
Coming in from the lake
Getting into your eyes
Itâs the invisible breath
Of a storm on the rise
That I feel whenever you arrive
Now I may not be quick
Maybe never was
But tell me what the hell it is
That youâve become
Baby if you never got sick
I wouldnât get to hold you
Baby if you never got sick
I would never get to hold you
This ainât a righteous love
Even a good one
These ainât the kinds of return
That I was thinking of
Iâm unbearable now
You ainât seen nothing yet
Youâll se me dead
Before you see me quit
That ainât a jug of wine
That youâve been drinking from
Now lay back now baby
Let your fever come
I will bury you in
Just to dig you out
I havenât a use
For being proud
[chorus]
I followed you deep into a barren field
There was someone you were running from
When I needed to sleep
Thatâs when you disappeared
But I did get the impossible done
Now I always knew
There was God inside you
I just never did learn which one
[chorus]
