Vonda Shepard - Cartwheels lyrics

rate me

Oh mama we'd sail away

Doing cartwheels on the front lawn everyday

And you'd sing 'here comes the sun'

Then we'd dance together

I thought it would last forever

I see my life fly on by

Like a soldier in the rain

With a shining road ahead of me

For once in my life I wanna be happy

Stop running from my memories

Being on the road sets me free but sometimes

I want to come back home

I want to hear your voice say to me

Be yourself 'cause that's all that matters baby

Oh mama you'd carry me away

On the rooftops and in the high trees

That's where I used to dream

I'd close my eyes and hear you sing

'blackbird in the dead of night'

I see your life fly on by

Mama don't you be afraid

Look at all the love that you have made

Oh mama you want us to forgive you

But you did nothing wrong

You followed your road for so long that sometimes

You want to come back home

You want it all to be the way it was

Shaynamaidala doing cartwheels on the lawn

All the planes are out tonight

I see them flying lighting up the sky
