Ricky Nelson - Wings Lyrics
Seen it written and I've heard it told
That a man does things for gold
Drives him crazy and it makes him old
Before his time
Wastin' time and loosin' friends
Never knowin' that it ends before his eyes
But those of us who seek the truth
Will be there when she rides
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
Talkin' 'bout wings
Pickin' us up by the waves
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
Once met a man and his words were wise
And he looked me in the eyes
he said brother don't you compromise
What you feel
All things figure in a bigger plan
And it's up to veryman
Just to do the best to reach his own ideals
And build a world around himself
And live it like he feels
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
Talkin' 'bout wings
Pickin' us up by the waves
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
Talkin' 'bout wings
Pickin' us up by the waves
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings
Talkin' 'bout wings
To carry us over the water
Talkin' 'bout wings
Pickin' us up by the waves
Aw, so many things can breed misunderstandin'
We'll soon be landin' on velvet wings

ONE OF MY FAVORITES. THE LATER SONGS WERE REALLY GOOD, JUST A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM EARLY ONES.
Love the Stone Canyon Era. Dennis Larden wrote beautiful songs.
Great song
@nina1823 Happy to share :) Yes I agree, Tracy looks very much like her mother.
This is a new song to me, thanks. By the way, his daughter Tracy looked exactly like her mother, I watched her TV series.
@JBmiddleOFnoWHERE I like it alot, too. Glad you enjoyed!
