Cross To Bear, lyric by Vonda Shepard

from the songs album By 7:30


you ran away with your conscience dear
there was a red flag waving in my ear saying
'stay away you've got something to fear'
well why did i not choose to hear
well i am through with suffering
gonna make better choices i don't need no wedding ring
i can sing i can dance
but i can't make thus feeling cease
cause deep in my soul you left a permanent crease and

we all got our cross to bear
our star of david our dreadlocked hair
and oh yeah baby i still care
and if you need some help
you know i'll always be there

well it's been a strange year
you've been a very bad dog
as my fire went out
you'd put on another log
but it was worth never having any peace
and deep in my soul you left a permanent crease and

repeat chorus

some nights i thought i'd cry forever
i'd wish him away and then i'd turn into a beggar
but it was worth always scraping my knees
and deep in my soul you left a permanent crease

i wear my heart like a wrinkle on my sleeve

and i've got the aching love that only you can relieve
but i'm not afraid to go down with a sinking friend
i'm gonna live out my dreams even if they kill me in the end

repeat chorus
