elton john - i've got 2 wings lyrics
[verse 1]
i am the elder utah smith
i’ve got two wings to fly
they may be made of paper
they may never reach the sky
but i believe in mercy
i believe that man is good
and if they want two wings like me
there’s a chance they could
[verse 2]
i am the elder utah smith
i was born in cedar grove
that’s in louisiana
on a dirt-poor stretch of road
i found the calling early
gave birth to righteous words
and in a tent around the south
i took my sonic church
[chorus]
i was a light for the living
and i spoke of peace and love
with two wings and my old gibson
i bought blessings from above
i was here and i was gone
just a heartbeat from the past
but i went from paper wings
to the real thing at last
[verse 3]
i am the elder utah smith
i take all as they are
i was the first man of the cloth
to blacken a guitar
love was my redeemer
i felt it from the start
the holy ghost was channeled
through the sound of my guitar
[chorus]
i was a light for the living
and i spoke of peace and love
with two wings and my old gibson
i bought blessings from above
i was here and i was gone
just a heartbeat from the past
but i went from paper wings
to the real thing at last
[verse 4]
been a long time in the ground
unmarked is my grave
but i reside elsewhere these days
thanks to souls i’ve saved
i traveled far, i traveled wide
three quarts for the lord
till one day he called me home
to claim his great reward
[chorus]
i was a light for the living
and i spoke of peace and love
with two wings and my old gibson
i bought blessings from above
i was here and i was gone
just a heartbeat from the past
but i went from paper wings
to the real thing at last
i was a light for the living
and i spoke of peace and love
with two wings and my old gibson
i bought blessings from above
i was here and i was gone
just a heartbeat from the past
but i went from paper wings
to the real thing at last
