Testo The Cape - Patty Griffin
Testo della canzone The Cape (Patty Griffin), tratta dall'album This One's for Him: A Tribute to Guy Clark
He's eight years old with a flour sack cape
Tied all around his neck
He climbed up on the garage
Figurin' what the hell
He screwed his courage up so tight
The whole thing came unwound
He got a runnin' start and bless his heart
He headed for the ground
He is one of those who knows that life
Is just a leap of faith
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape
He's all grown up with a flour sack cape
Tied around his drink
He's full of piss and vinegar
He's bustin' at the seams
He licked his finger and checked the wind
Said it's gonna be do or die
He wasn't scared of nothin' boys
He was pretty sure he could fly
He is one of those who knows that life
Is just a leap of faith
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape
He's old and grey with a flour sack cape
Tied all around his head
He's still jumpin' off the garage
And will be 'til he's dead
And all these years the people said
He's actin' like a kid
He did not know he could not fly
So he did
He's one of those who knows that life
Is just a leap of faith
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape
He's one of those who knows that life
Is just a leap of faith
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape
Spread your arms and hold your breath
And always trust your cape
